Andrew McTeer: The Idea Machine

Wed, Oct 10, 2007

General

My buddy, Andy, is a freakin’ idea machine. This guy has as many ideas as I do heart beats. His latest idea is possibly one of the best security related things I have heard in a long time.

Check this out:

I would love it if my bank had “duress passwords/pins”. So that If I were ever held up and forced to extract money from my bank account - If I typed in my special PIN it would alert the police I was in trouble. Also it could do fancy stuff like reduce my funds to a minimal amount to protect loss (and still give the crook something as to not raise suspicion).

If you ever want to see an active brain in action just head over and check out his Bitporters blog. If none of his ideas inspire you, well my dear sir, you are uninspirable. (is that even a word?)
