    It’s an older interview, but I like to bring this up whenever Kaspersky comes up as a topic:

    If you had the power to change up to three things in the world today that are related to IT security, what would they be?

    Internet design–that’s enough.

    That’s it? What’s wrong with the design of the Internet?

    There’s anonymity. Everyone should and must have an identification, or Internet passport. The Internet was designed not for public use, but for American scientists and the U.S. military. That was just a limited group of people–hundreds, or maybe thousands. Then it was introduced to the public and it was wrong…to introduce it in the same way.

        Yeah, I sure as shit wouldn’t use the internet if it wasn’t anonymous, seems like a weird thing to want when people are more concerned for their privacy than ever before.
