According to today's Fox News report, the correlation could be similar to an ALL IN or FOLD decision situation.
If/When Microsoft goes "ALL IN" (aka - ALL OUT) on security and your hand is not stacked you could be left with no choice but to FOLD. If this lack of responsibility on their part is not a WAKE UP CALL to those of us who have been sitting back passively expecting that our online information is securely protected ..... then we might as well sit down at the high rollers table with our life's "NUT" in the kitty-left to the chance shuffle of the deck.
By the way this is not something that has just happened over night, the absence of any real sense of CORPORATE LIABILITY on the part of internet service providers and/or third party affiliations has been non-existent for quite some time now. I feel that our (our = "the Internet Users") willingness to sit idly by while our privacy has been manipulated, under the veil of certain regulations or compliances is a sign of a bigger picture of what is going on in today's society in general. We find ourselves so immersed in the use of the respective services, devices, etc., whether its texting-emailing- facebooking- tweeting-sharing pics or even purchasing things -on -a whim -with - no due diligence personally to learn the process by which any services are provided.
You wouldn't gamble all of your life savings and informational assets at a Poker Table and rely on LUCK to ensure the return or security of such, yet every day ALL DAY we sign on, link in, and don't give it a second thought. In our modern technological era, where by all of our lives are conducted in a place of obscurity, we must take individual responsibility for our actions on a much higher level than ever before. We cannot continue to point fingers or take for granted that someone or something is going to "take care of it". That is an adolescent mentality that is no longer acceptable, and before we have to learn the hard way (and this is coming from someone who has), it is TIME TO OPEN OUR EYES AND OUR MINDS to individually and collectively (as a common society) to come up with some resolutions and implement them with the wisdom that has been obtained over the 3 (three) decades of experience.
Consider this, why do you think we named it the INternet. The advancements in science, technology, medicine, sociology and psychology have prepared us for this Global "ONE-NESS" and we are expected to and "opted to" by our own participation - to be emotional and mentally stable - to make smart-informed decisions for ourselves. IN order to survive as a race, we must advance, (all you need to do read a history book about the possible and past desecration of the human race) ... to know that its "US" as a whole, as one, who need to really be - ALL INternet - and we will see that it is time to take back awareness, stop being taken off guard and inevitably - make them FOLD. The only thing standing in the way of further advancement is ourselves, we need to begin to leverage this amazing tool/resource we created, take responsibility for ourselves and our communities for the mutual greater good. We were created in the image of our maker, and I know and have strong faith in the belief.....that we have not even touched the surface of all that we as Brothers and Sisters are truly capable of.
(I do apologize for the lack of factual references in my above ranting's, and I will post a more detailed blog later, but for now I am just venting). This blog was not intended for anything more than a platform for me, and any others who are in need of release, to openly and hopefully without any harsh ridicule, voice my own feelings and observations. I do not represent anyone in particular....except for the future for the next and next and next and next generations to come.
