[VulnDiscuss] Re: Your Opinion
Ummm, hhheeelllooo. Given the MS security history, Genuine
Advantage (phone home), etc, would you really trust their
decisions and software? I, for one, will be running Wireshark
on any new MS implementations (when I get them). I do think
it's applaudable that they are trying to increase security,
but they have a long way to go yet (and trust is something
that needs to be demonstrated, not dictated).

PS - At least we're not talking about Oracle ;-)
