Microsoft Opens Access to Vulnerability Notifications

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the open-doors dept.

joseph schmo writes "Microsoft has announced that it will throw open the floodgates of vulnerability notifications for everyone who wants them. Previously, it was only offering early notifications to 'Premier and other 'representative' customers,' or those customers who would sign a Non-disclosure statement."

    Is anyone else ashamed to be an American? I can't even sleep, I'm so scared. Where are we going to be in four years?

    What if, after four years, the blindly patriotic, the evangelicals, and the O'Reilly Factor fans are still in control? There are too damn many of them - we don't stand a chance.

      Your penis is still only an inch long (hard), election or no election, so I for one congratulate you on your days of gloating. Those days will soon end, though, my friend, and you will still be a tiny-man, so ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN!

    Anyone who posts AC for any reason other than for reasons of confidentiality is to be despised.

    If you post AC for any other reason you are not willing to stand by your comments, which is beneath contempt. I have never posted AC and will not do so unless under an NDA, or I am posting information that is otherwise confidential.

    Tool.

    I post AC all the time and their is a reason behind it. I dont feel like signing up for an account. To me its kind of like registering on the NYT. So, not all AC are hiding behind their words.

    Simply remove the AC post and you will get your wish. I believe Commander Taco would be the one to consult.
