There was a piece on NPR this morning about Internet security and how hard it's going to be to do because software is designed for efficiency and then the security issues are plugged when they occur and that leaves lots of holes open for cyberterrorists and the only way to fix it is to get designers to build in security from the start.

But I'm not sure. Hasn't there been success in some quarters with mobilizing hackers to help with security? Couldn't we do that now? Some of the motivation would be patriotism. Some would be rewards? I'm going to ask Steven.
