With cybersecurity now part of our daily news, perhaps it's worth asking 
the linux community what might be done?

anti-virus, etc. But to borrow a phrase, a billion accounts hacked here 
and a billion hacked there, pretty soon we're talking about a real 
hacking problem.

Many smart people are proud how complex their product is getting. Energy 
planners say a "smart electric power grid" and "self driving" cars are 
good for us.
