Episode Sixty-Three - If I Were King of the World

In the early 1970s (1971 to be exact), a group of wise men (Three Dog Night) were quoted as saying:

And if I were the king of the world
Tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war
Make sweet love to you

Wise, right?

Wait a second! What is I/you like cars and bars? Some people must like wars too because we keep having them.

OK, all that aside for now. What if I were king of the world? What would I do?

In terms of information security:
Would I fire CEOs for not doing the basics?
Would I flog the vendor for making crappy stuff?
Would I define what's negligent and what's not, then throw people in jail?
Would I fire the CISOs who continue to take shortcuts?
Would I break up the monopolies that dominate technology?
Would I, would I, would I...

This should be a good discussion where we can dream a little bit. How would we right the world and how would you? Join me (Evan), Ryan, Chris, and Rachel (leading the online stuff) for an entertaining (and hopefully helpful) show LIVE on these Youtubes!
