...our Boss does not want to monitor our employees.
However, as IT we know that SOME monitoring has to be done. We have found out that MOST of our monitoring does not even need to take place. We simply restrict access through Active Directory and DNS.

Oh! THEIR app store. Now I get it.
So...in order to get an official app on my phone that app must be in the app store.
So...in order to get into the app store that app must pass Apple's moral police.
So...that would be censorship.

I know I will get slammed but whatever.
"And it's not just the hackers; third-party influentials and industry leaders like Cisco tell us regularly that our focus and investment continues to surpass others."
Exactly. When a vulnerability is discovered Microsoft has 100s of people who are paid specifically to ID it and fix it. When a high priority security issue is discovered Microsoft pushes out a fix within hours or maybe a day or two. Other companies, you will be lucky to get a fix within a week or a month.
Yes, I know there are examples where the fast response did not happen. However, 90% of the time you even hear about a security hole is because Microsoft has just released a patch for it.

Apple has many proprietary products too. Though the operating system for the iPhone, iPod and iPad is proprietary, we strongly believe that all standards pertaining to the web should be open.
Please write open stuff. Just use closed stuff to write it.

Microsoft Tips the Scale In Favor of HTML 5 325
aabelro writes "Dean Hachamovitch, General Manager for Internet Explorer at Microsoft, has announced that IE9 will use only the H.264 standard to play HTML 5 video. Microsoft seems to have become very committed to HTML 5, while Flash loses even more ground. The announcement came the same day Steve Jobs detailed why Apple does not accept Flash on iPhone and iPad."
