Your ultra luxury hotels might have this vision of the "future", but good luck getting your average mid-level franchise owner to spend even a penny on any of this.
It doesn't, and that's why I dumped it. Chrome is susceptible to attacks like js:prontexi via poisoned ads that the user doesn't need to click on or even mouseover. The ad loads, the script runs, and if your antivirus is less than what it should be, you're toast. Even folks surfing the New York Times have been hit with this particular virus. The average user isn't going to catch on that the site they visited had nothing to do with what happened. But they will tell all their friends that "I went to so-and-so's site and got a virus." The Times has the resources to recover from that hit on their reputation, but what about some web forum struggling already to find a niche? A mom-and-pop retail/repair outlet in some strip mall somewhere?
Chrome can't be trusted as long as they insist on fetching ads from adservers that can't be trusted to get *their* house in order.
Yes, he's leaving the White House, but that in no way means he's done working *with* the White House and the Republican Party. All it really means is that he'll be free of the restrictions on doing political work out of a government office.
Then again, if or when it hits the fan, any work he may have done after that date would not have the protection of his White house job or "Executive Privilege".
In any event, expect the dirty tricks to continue as usual.
This story is apocryphal, but possibly true: A man in the Old West is convicted and sentenced to hang. When the attorney informs the judge of his intention to appeal, the judge replies, 'Go ahead and appeal, but in the meantime the prisoner is to be hanged.' And he was.

God kills a kitten. Please, think of the kittens.
Followed by haha, defectivebydesign, and all the other 'We hate Microsquish' BS. FUD works both ways.
