"Even in the highly-wired world, you can still find older installs of operating systems and browsers: public libraries, to pick but one example. Securing the web literally made it less accessible to many, many people around the world."
I'm a librarian and I talk to hundreds of other librarians a year about technology and security and all this stuff. In my experience it is incredible rare to find a library that is running anything THAT old.
