How convenient: Microsoft funds a conserative think-tank that recently released a ‘study’ saying open source software is inherently less secure than proprietary software (how ’bout that, an ontological argument in this postmodern day and age). So, what’s the tally now? How many major security flaws have been found in IIS (compared to Apache)? [via dangerousmeta!]
Check out this little bit o’ pro MS-propaganda from the same pro-proprietary folks listed above. I think De Toqueville must be rolling around in his grave right now. Found this interesting quote from him:
“As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans, one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?”
