I am amazed how much attention and comments this article gets. What do you expect the government to do? Every government is running it's intelligence service and we expect our government to do that, don't we (well our government is part of the nice guys anyway, therefore it is good ;-)). Now, you do not expect them to use today's technology? Hey, come on, in which world do you live? I saw comments like "as long as they spy on each other, I do not care" - where do you live my friends? It is part of the governments' job to do industrial espionage (at least most of them do as a matter of fact). And you do not expect them to use today's technology? Come on... The world out there is not nice - it is darn bad! Roger Chief Security Advisor Microsoft EMEA
