2002 Strikes Back

A few years ago, 2002 to be exact, I was rocking a 2.1 megapixel Sony CyberShot DSC-P50 digital camera. I wandered around Boston taking a lot of pictures, and decided that I should join IStockPhoto.com to share my pictures. I only uploaded one; at the time I thought it was the only one worth posting.

Fast forward to 2006.

I log into my bank account as usual, and up comes a new option to help prevent fraud, called: “Site Key.” A piece of its protection scheme is that the user selects a picture for the site to display so that he knows it isn’t a fraudulent site. Lo and behold, it’s the picture I took back in 2002, and no — I didn’t use it as my site key
