Microsoft denies intentionally shutting off Hotmail encryption in Arab countries | |
|
||
| Time: 10:52 EST/15:52 GMT | News Source: Network World | Posted By: Andi Stabryla | ||

Microsoft says it did not "intentionally limit" access to Hotmail's HTTPS encryption service in foreign countries where freedom of expression is under attack. The Electronic Frontier Foundation said Friday that "Microsoft appears to have turned off the always-use-HTTPS option in Hotmail for users in more than a dozen countries," calling the move "deeply disturbing." | ||

If the countries that had HTTPS made unavailable were in the Western world Microsoft's PR story would have some credibility to it. MS's story is not credible. However, if what MS says is true, than they have a "spy" inside MS aiding foreign dictators. I don't know which is worse.
MS: Please stop acting bone-headed, whether intentionally doing so or not. I like your products but am having a harder time then ever supporting much of MS to others. For example, why does it take up to 30 days to get download information after being approved to purchase Action Pack? Don't they use computers at Microsoft? MS management actions and processes seem stuck somewhere in the 1980's. No, that's not quite right. They were faster, more honest, and more responsive in the 1980's. |

Yeah, aiding and abetting murdering thug dictators is ALL Microsoft's fault. Meanwhile, we as a nation, support the UN. You know the organization that has about 197 countries in it and over 100 are run by murdering thug dictators. Yeah, like the one we're presently bombing the crap out of - Libya.
Speaking of Libya, in 2010 they were elected to the UN's Human Rights Council garnering 155 votes. They needed 97 to be elected. Libya is on the Human Rights Council for three years. Thank goodness that this president is not attempting to cause regime change like that last guy did in Iraq. I mean, if that were the case, wouldn't Libya lose their seat on the UN's Human Rights Council? I don't know which is worse . . . . |

| Right away the semi-conspiracy nuts at EFF say that Microsoft did it on purpose. When Google routinely has Gmail problems, do EFF say it's a conspiracy also to stop terrorists from planning attacks? Give me a break. These crackpots are anti-big business anyways. They want everything for free. Scr?w any trademarks. |
