http://www.hevanet.com/peace/microsoft.htmSince the bugs are very public and Microsoft has the money, it seems reasonable to suppose that top management at Microsoft has deliberately decided that the bugs should remain, at least for now.

The U.S. government's CIA and FBI and NSA departments spy on the entire world, and unpatched vulnerabilities in Microsoft software help spies.I had a hard time taking the article seriously after this.
Though, the registry section had some information, his perception of the registry is outdated. Microsoft no longer advocates using the registry in applications, for the same reaons. He has no legitimate complaint as far as where MS is taking us here.
His gripes about using DOS are dead on, this is not where MS is taking its customers. To me, thats a good things.
As far as "Palladium gives Microsoft the ability to prevent users from seeing their own documents and data", I have to agree. This doesn't look cool at all. I'm hoping they don't go through with it.
