You find the author's view laughable, but I find your view laughable. Reasonable deployments of Ubuntu or Windows get upgraded with security fixes all the time, browsers update themselves all the time. Waiting a year between security fixes is just foolish.
- Silhouette 12y agoThe problem isn't the security fixes. Everyone agrees that pushing security fixes promptly is generally a good idea. The problem is all the other changes that you may or may not want that get bundled in with those security fixes in a forced-upgrade model. Certain web browsers are among the best examples I know of this user-hostile behaviour.
