M$ and Passport
« on: 9 August 2002, 21:44 »
Another slap on the wrist for M$ from the Federal Trade Commission. Microsofts "Passport" Privacy and Security assurances were all just bullshit. Turns out M$ were keeping peoples credit card info on unsecured servers, collecting data on what web sites you were visiting and using this information to pass along to whoever wanted it. When will people learn ? It's not enough that their product is shit, but they want to control everything. They have to be stopped.
Democracy, it's like three wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

Learn? Most people don't know. There are people that don't want to know. There are even people that reeds the article and think: "This is technical, let's read something else, because I don't understand it.".

Most people rather send stupid chainletters, than to read a chainletter about MSN Hotmail's evil policy (I tested this with several "I-love-Hotmail" people).
