Sarah Bloom Raskin: We are certainly developing a shared understanding of the threat; we now need to develop a consensus around ways to responsibly address this threat. In the current global environment of interconnectivity, we have seen a growing consensus around the need to ensure that international legal principles pertaining to state sovereignty, human rights, and state responsibility apply equally to conduct online as well as offline. As part of a broader effort to improve cybersecurity around the world, we are working with the international community to develop common understandings of responsible state behavior in cyberspace.

Michael Lewis: Perhaps now more than ever, clever people are habituated to being paid to ignore the spirit of any rule ... Upon seeing a new rule they do not think, "What social purpose does this serve, and how can I help it to do the job?" They think, "How can I game it?"
Ann Helen Petersen: The more you make the evidence of the game disappear, the more your audience will be willing to forget that they're being played.
Shawn Henry: We're not winning.
Steven Bellovin: We don't even have the right words.
