Neat feature of web surfing is to find a pearl amongst the swine. I am definitely in security/privacy mode researching sites to recommend for password development. With the musicnazis at RIAA using strong arm tactics, hacker attacks, the virus creeps and script kitties doing their weirdness - everyone needs to secure their personal confusers and web activities. Good passwords are essential. After exploring known sites, leafing throught the government pages of monotony, I have discovered a site that is easy to use, simple in language and contains a wealth of information. It seems to be English. Andrew Starling bought a CD from Amazon.com and later returned under another identity. Amazon.com kept reminding him that he was originally registered as Andrew and this inspired him to further investigate how they gained such info. This led to the creation of Tinhat.com.
This site offers tips and aspects of cyber-security. He even gives a brief explanation of Echelon and has many links about each topic on the site. It's ad driven, but they aren't that annoying. Still using your telephone number, date of birth, pet's name, Bible name, favorite character from the Lord of the Rings as a password? Be sure and read 'Good and bad passwords' under Personal Data.
Good site, navigates well, a plethora of info, easy to read. A link is posted - Tinhat Security, etc.
Remember the words of that New England Poet, Bobby Frost, in Mending Wall -"Good fences build good neighbors."
