The "badness" is unevenly distributed. Well educated people with money tend not to have to deal with most of it. And can usually afford to make it go away when they do. Cops also tend not to bother them as much. I have a personal

Right, this proves my point. You can run Java apps on JBoss. That's it. You are still limited to using their infrastructure. Don't get me wrong, that's not necessarily a bad thing. For many, it's wonderful. I'm just

This is true, but it reduces the possibility of getting your data by asking (or "compelling") the provider. Most security models assume that there is adequate physical security and that threats come over the network. A hosting ser
