Is Microsoft Truly Trustworthy?

This article gets to the heart of concerns about Microsoft security issues. It's not merely that the current product contains security flaws, it's that I (and many others, it seems) do not trust the upgrades. My unease is not remedied by suggestions that Microsoft may force people to install security patches, especially when they display a cavalier attitude about broken applications and trashed systems. And then there's this whole issue of digital rights enforcement, which my more cynical self is what really lies behind Microsoft's new emphasis on security. I can't see upgrading Windows. No, I can't see it at all.
