I also agree that the name of the board should be "Security and Privacy" and not cybersecurity, so long as the topic has something at least marginally to do with crypto.

I don't fully agree with Security and Privacy. I understand the point and that physical security is still important...should we really want to deviate away from a specific focus on digital security, and introduce physical security to be mixed in with this board though?

I think 'digital' is implied when talking about 'security' in the context of privacy and Bitcoin. There may be one or two interesting topic ideas about e.g. ways to physically secure seed phrase backups against thefts or something, and I wouldn't report them as off-topic, even if the board was called 'cybersecurity', to be honest.
So, both names are fine for me.

I wouldn't say so. Similar to what joker says, I suppose that the default interpretation of 'security' would be different for everyone. You're right, there would be interesting topics on this subject to do with backups, seeds, etc. I think they wouldn't be reported as off-topic but instead moved to the Wallets board as they relate to this most, and most posts about this already reside there. Aside from protecting your seed/private keys, there is not much else that is actually related to Bitcoin in terms of physical security that isn't wildly off topic in my opinion, and all of these topics would probably fit better in the Wallets board than they would in the 'cybersecurity' board.

If we welcome physical security posts generally with the intention that it will relate to bitcoin, I believe it would open up the avenue for people to talk about things like personal/home surveillance, setting up these tools, protecting yourself in the street, etc. Not that there is anything wrong with it, but again, I feel that it is wildly off topic. The board name would kind of allow it too...since the board will be generally named 'security and privacy'. Cybersecurity links to bitcoin because low cybersecurity = more risk to your coins. Privacy is in line with Bitcoin ethos. Physical security? It doesn't really fit.
