In a move as fiendishly clever as it is galling, Microsoft tells the U.S.
government about bugs in its notoriously buggy software before it fixes them
so that intelligence agencies can use the vulnerabilities for the purposes
of cyberspying. "That information can be used to protect government
computers and to access the computers of terrorists or military foes,"
sources tell Bloomberg's Michael Riley. But still, the biggest software
company on Earth is holding off on its blue-screen-of-death problems to turn
them into real-life spy features, an impressive feat that will no doubt
frustrate consumers: We are, after all, waiting for our computers to work so
the nation's spy services — almost certainly including the National
Security Agency, given its massive espionage umbrella — can take advantage
of the problems with them first. their mistakes first. |
