yet another information security cartoon

looks like didier stevens is getting in on the security cartoon craze, and this first one is pretty interesting...

while we're on the subject of sending our cyber-trash into space, however, why aren't we sending spam into space? surely there are beings out there that would be interested in making their tentacles larger and firmer? or perhaps some that want to be able to produce a greater volume of slime?

oh, wait, i know why we don't send spam into space - getting black holed in that context would suck...

if you leave details...

new(ish) meme: priceless

you may have noticed that the previous two visual gags posted were based on the same original screenshot... when i asked graham cluley how he felt about making it into a lolthreat i hadn't yet thought up a caption (in fact, i thought perhaps graham would suggest one)... as i deliberated on what to put in the caption i realized that the caption i really wanted to add wasn't a LOL caption at all, but a priceless one (if you haven't seen pictures riffing on that old mastercard 'priceless' commercial then you must have been living under a rock for several years)... there was an awful lot to work with in the original image (and it was already sort of LOLish), you see, and i didn't really think i could do it justice with just a LOL caption...

i'm still not sure which is funnier though, so i posted them both... what do you think? im in da man's intarwebz or priceless defacement?
