The JoyPoll was...

How will the War of The Webs (Internet of Thing devices being hijacked to disrupt the Internet) end?

  • Only after years and years of firmware updates.
  • Someone will just pull the plug on the Internet and reboot it!
  • Not with a bang but a whimper.
  • With white hat maleware, to target the malicious maleware.
  • With a well orchestrated campaign of blocking the sale of devices that can be compromised, and hunting down hijacked devices to destroying their capacity to attack DNS servers.
  • I hate to say it, but it's a game of cat and mouse that will never end.

About us...

The Joy of Tech is a comic about technology and pop culture, created by Nitrozac and Snaggy, and updated three times a week. We like to feature the people and events that are making today's tech and pop culture news.

We've been making comics on the web since early 1999, and The Joy of Tech is now in its, whoa... 16th year.

We currently live on Vancouver Island, Canada, where we have a lovely perspective of the silicon valleys to the south. We make The Joy of Tech using Apple computers, mostly on our MacBook Pros, running Mac OS X. We use software from Apple, Adobe, BBedit, OpenOffice.org, and others, including Microsoft (yep, we do use Microsoft Office for Mac on occasion). Nitrozac uses a Wacom tablet to draw her illustrations.
