But Windows IS a threat to national security.
- sqldba 9y agoIt isn't. Not from the perspective being given. This isn't about "can a company cripple the government", its about "can a FOREIGN company cripple the government". So the US is safe with MS at the helm and Russia is safe with Kaspersky at the helm; but not with each other's software. And frankly after dismissing my own knee jerk reaction, I agree. Yes it's ridiculous we're at the point where we can't trust non-free software and most modern hardware - but that's where we are. Bring on the 2100's.
- denzil_correa 9y agoI think that's exactly the point being made - Windows is a threat to Russia's national security. Or did I misread the parent?
