My company consists of me, my mother and my brother. We don't have a janitor, interns or visiting sales people. We don't have wifi. I know I can't trust my brother, but I'm not too bothered if he sniffs out my password and posts obscene messages on the wiki using my name. None of this justifies a MUST of anything.

You might as well add a MUST to the spec requiring that all accounts on an APP server have passwords greater than 9 characters, a mixture of letters and numbers, no dictionary words, and they MUST be changed every second week. Point out the risks all you want, but don't tell me what I MUST do in my own home.

James
