Microsoft Passport
has been
hacked yet again.
It was the second admission by Microsoft of a serious vulnerability in
Passport since last summer's settlement with the Federal Trade
Commission, which had accused Microsoft of deceptive claims about
Passport's security.
The theory of Passport is that we
trust Microsoft with all our personal data.
Even ignoring the risks of having a convicted predatory
monopolist own all online identity, do we really want to trust
a company with such a horrible security track record?
