Specifically what in your opinion is inaccurate about the following statement.
'Everyone using Bash has the freedom to download, inspect, and modify the code -- unlike with Microsoft, Apple, or other proprietary software.'
Microsoft contributes to certain open source projects while at the same time extorting revenue from Android handset makers under threats of litigation. As such its support of openness is suspect.
"Ars Technica speculates that licensing issues may be giving Apple pause: "[T]he current [bash] version is released under the GNU Public License version 3 (GPLv3). Apple has avoided bundling GPLv3-licensed software because of its stricter license terms..."
This is nothing more than anti GPL FUD. I mean how did Apple manage to originally bundle BASH without contaminating Mac OS X with the GPL 'viral' license. Shame on Ars Technica for spreading this FUD further. Since when has slashdot become a platform for spreading anti-GPL propaganda?
"Heartbleed has already been confirmed at the initial attack vector for the breach of a large healthcare system that stole 4.5M patient identities. Given the difficulty tracing Heartbleed attacks, it's likely other systems were compromised in the same way."
Do you have a link to this confirmed Heartbleed Healthcare breach?
This isn't a local initiative, but a directive by the US intelligence services. You see in order to defend the homeland, the rest of the planet has to be converted into a Stazi-like total surveillance police state. It's ironic that such measures wouldn't be allowed back in the US of A.

Yea, in his alternative history of computing, Microsoft actually contributed original technology and didn't rip-off everybody else. See for example where Bill Gates personally 'welcomes` Netscape into the Industry?

The first computers in the world were invented by Microsoft in 1981 to run the revolutionary MS-DOS operating system, before which humanity had no computers at all. In 1985 Microsoft invented the graphical user interface and the mouse. Microsoft Windows was the most secure operating system in the world, and also the easiest to use with the introduction of the revolutionary Microsoft Bob.
Microsoft would go on to invent the Internet, graciously allowing rival companies to establish a presence on Microsoft's new network. Microsoft created the most loved user interface in the world with the exciting new Windows 8 Aero.

"You're so set on your conclusion you don't even see that your arguments contradict it directly? ISIS united in opposition to the Syrian government and spilled over into Iraq from there. Al Qaeda formed in opposition to the Soviets and thousands of miles and decades separated from either Iraq war."
It's the same people, you would have to agree, all united in opposition to western involvement in their respective countries. The map of which was drawn up by GB in the dying days of the British Empire..
ISIS, Al Qaeda, $insert_name_here didn't exist until the US invaded Iraq and gave the locals an excuse to unite in opposition to foreigners invaders. Remember Al Qaeda was the name given by US forces for the loose band of tribal ethnic groups that, at the connivance of the CIA and under the direction of Osama bin Laden, united around the idea of repelling the Soviet invaders out of Afghanistan. Every action the US takes brings about the exact opposite of what they want, a clear case of the law of unintended consequence.

I was hoping for some diagrams and detailed textual analysis. I read somewhere that Netflix originality went with the 'Cloud' but quality-of-service was so poor, they had to go out and build their own content delivery backend.
Is there a fully described real world example, we all could take a look at before committing ourselves to the 'Cloud'?
