Yeah, 3rd party, middleware security solutions are the answer. Sure they are. Go watch the old movie The Net and then come back and post some more on this. And, no, don't post about how Sandra Bullock is hottest...

The problem is that they're still not big enough to get away with it. Sure, Amazon dominates the cloud market, but it's not an oligopoly. There are dozens of large alternatives and hundreds of smaller ones. Verizon, HP,...

35 years ago, we had "Mood Rings". This will no doubt work just as reliably, and at hundreds of times the cost. Being a Microsoft product, does this mean that it will have to be removed and put back on...
