Critical info (was Upgrading...)

[Oren Beck]

RE: looking at the code in OS or GUI.

The watchdog against such creeping erosion of our liberty thru malicious
software is US. That is, those of us who can degub deliberate hidings.
The deeper question is WHY such hidden betrayal systems exist at all.
It becomes a 2 part explanation. Political and Technical.
Which explanation is more probable?


The summary is that those of us who CAN catch THEM at the game
need to begin reporting it to the world or the world will become a place
where reporting such things gets you liquidated.
And are you willing to bet your life that I am wrong?
