secure data within their network. Every solution he proposed uses and outside resource. Move away from storing all data? Use outside authentication? One time accounts? (this one really got me)

Again, the fact that he has data on a company negates your statement that he is for government transparency.

The guy has his own agenda, and at least two times in the recent past has come out against leaks. The first time was when he suspended an employee because of suspected leaks to Newsweek, and the second time is the story linked above.

Disclosure of the address is part of the normal procedure. If it out of the norm for this to be made public I could see your point, but it seems to me that he is attempting to change it in this case. I still find it highly ironic that a "advocate" of the stance that all information should be free would take this position.

It has been reported that Wikileaks has data regarding a company (a large bank). How does this fit with your criteria?

Also, the bail records are public information, not personal data. I was amused by the irony of his position.

The article says that Amazon can scale rapidly and quickly, but the title of the post led me to believe we would learn how they do this. I was expecting more...

It would be great to learn what technology is used to accomplish this rapid scale, as well as what network components support this.
