很久以前，Hiawatha Webserver (一個以安全著稱的網頁伺服器軟體) 的作者寫了一篇部落格文章，其中提到他個人對 "Security v. Trust" 的看法，讓我感到非常同意。
"Security begins where trust ends. I trust my wife, I trust my family, I trust my friends. Of course, my wife has a key to our home, but without any doubt I would give the key to our home to any family member or a friend if it was needed in any situation. There is no need for me to take any security measures. Trust is needed to make life easier. Of course, I don't give the key to our home to a complete stranger, because I can't trust them. That's where security starts."
......
"Trust is mainly based on experience, your own experience or experience by other people you already trust. I trust my friends, because in the past they've shown me to be trustworthy. People who have once abused that trust are no longer my friends. I trust my friends' judgement, so there is also some form of trust towards the friends of my friends."
從小我就一直不太容易信任別人，因為人會改變、人不可靠。寫程式則正好相反，不管你寫的東西是對或錯，編譯器都會很誠實的告訴你；不管執行結果是對或錯，作業系統也會很誠實的告訴你。但是現實世界不像虛擬世界這麼簡單，這就是我喜歡 GSX-401FW Stargazer Gundam 的原因，他總是抬著頭望向遠方的群星，無視週遭的紛擾不斷前進，雖然孤獨的完成任務，但是至少有群星陪伴，而不是靠不住的人。
我曾經對人的諾言、誓約覺得無感，就像前面所說的，因為 "People have once abused that trust from me."，我很難過。然而，太陽的出現讓我嘗試著重拾對人的信心，我也希望尋回自己遺落已久的信任，奉獻給唯一的太陽。這麼做有風險，卸下銅牆鐵壁的防禦工事的我無法承受這份信任被再次濫用。為什麼還要這麼做? 因為我是大笨蛋啊。
「項莊舞劍，意在沛公」這樣的情形不知道是不是正在上演，希望是我自己神經質，腦補錯誤然後在那邊心裡亂發毛而已。
