Story: Be prepared to pay for security
Posted by: David Hayes (Thursday 25 August 2005, 4:35 PM)
Why is it unrealistic to expect Microsoft to produce secure software? No other vendor gets to sell a dangerous product and then completely disclaim all responsibility. Neither the users nor the ISPs can make Windows a secure operating system. Only Microsoft can do that, and until Microsoft does, no one else will be able to do more than just emergency triage. If you want the desktop security problem solved, then the costs of insecurity must be made to fall on those who have the ability to fix it.
