The converse goes for Security when (for instance) its practitioners come up with an amazing new security procedure that no user will ever follow. In fact, a great many problems would be solved if we could but make a few more introductions between disciplines. Getting Software Development acquainted with fields like Ethics, Sociology, and Social Justice and concepts like privacy, identity, diversity, and accessibility would be a good start. </p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=shadowspar&ditemid=51573" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
