Browsers: Flock To The New One

There’s a new browser coming out soon. It’s called Flock, and it’s supposed to be based around the social concept, e.g. delicious, flickr, etc.

I’m somewhat worried about the security of such an offering. Not because of the team or anything, but because they are including so much functionality. Complexity is the enemy of security, and I can’t see something that integrates all of this coolness not being complex.

(yoda) Complexity leads to mistakes. Mistakes lead to vulnerabilities.(/yoda)

Anyway, I can’t wait to see it. I’ll just use double passthrough reverse ROT13 encryption on my firewall while I run it. You can’t be too careful with this stuff.
