yeah, you are right there. However, they will have to eventually justify those expenses, so the more expensive we make it for them, the more likely it is that they may be forced to give up and let us have more secure products.

one other point to offer, we might end up having to file an FOIA request to get the source code for all of these malware tools. then we could take them apart, figure out how to disarm them and create more secure linux devices. Then again, one can dream. :)

We could start a movement or group but they spend a lot of money infiltrating those groups. There isnt a lot of ways to reliably compete against their tactics....

*sigh* leave it to bureaucrats to completely foul things up as usual. Now, had this come out some 20 years ago, people would have thought it to be in the realm of science fiction. oh wait, there was one such film: swordfish!

perhaps its time we all started a consortium to combat this? I would rather see a secure system that requires multiple levels of security than this.
