The following quotes clarify @Stake's position. It's worse than even I
thought. They know better, but don't care anymore. M$ is more important
than truth.

"Chris Wysopal, @stake's director of research, said the company had no
argument with the report's basic premise that technological diversity
poses less of a security risk than monolithic architectures. "But the way
the report is positioned and a lot of its conclusions are things we don't
agree with. The report is a bit one-sided," he said."

"An @stake official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed that
Geer was fired and said that as a corporate officer he should have known
that Microsoft was a client of the company. "It's not a matter of the
content of the report; it's a matter of ethics and respect for clients,"
the official said."
