There are two interesting articles in this week's _Economist_ that bear on our security issues and CAPTCHA multiplexing and/or alternatives in particular. 1. law ethics and business of breaking things: One deals with market-making for security holes that someone has found and that the vendor hasn't plugged yet. This has parallels to the business practices of http://www.economist.com/science/displaystory.cfm?story_id=9507422 2. identity brokering plus biometrics seeking to enter retail use from phones. The other article deals with voiceprinting technology used for user authentication in payment transactions. http://www.economist.com/science/displaystory.cfm?story_id=9507446 Al
