I'm not entirely convinced it's as true as it sounds. Not all companies exist to survive and profit; a few, especially privately-held ones, express the desires of their owner(s) instead, and it would surprise me if there weren't a few who would be delighted to be put out of business by no longer having anything to combat - Spamhaus is the first one who comes to mind as a plausible example. Probably only a comparative few, though. :( /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
