It's a bit ironic
Scoble and the blogosphere are buzzing over what Steve Ballmer apparently said about IPOD's, MP3 players and stolen music. Want to know something really ironic? And I apologize to any Microsoft MVP that hasn't yet received their October MVP award but this year it's not anything to do with Swiss Army gifts. In fact, while it doesn't have a fruit on the outside of the small, pocket sized device, it sure could be used in EXACTLY the same way that Ballmer alluded to.
Fellow MVP Chris Lanier blogs about how DRM sucks. What I also think has to occur is how technology for the home HAS to be easier. We've had a discussion about how the remote technology that we are opening up our businesses to also open up our firms to the threats and risks from home computer systems. We remote in from systems that may have as a security risk one of the most high risk users of all time, that of the teenager. Joe Wilcox of the Monitor blogs about this issue.
Security is too complicated still for the average person.
