You may not be their exact target audience, though.

Stick, carrot, put both of them together and I bet they reinforce each other.

Including cybersecurity insurers. I bet they'll start coming up with software security "building codes" real soon now.

It may turn us from "actors" into "offloaders" or "delegators."

Cut her a little slack, she was probably a D-E-one hire.

Or scrape up $50 for a bidet so you can cut your toilet paper costs significantly.
