This whole thread should have ended in 3-4 post max, but you continue
it and insist that you know better than others
what "security" is and what implications it has. If someone sees
blatantly wrong statements like this, they get angry.
It was a pointless and unproductive comment on Tiago's side, but undestable.


As I myself contribute to this more and more offtopic discussion,
I will follow Ville's suggestion and end it here.


Have a nice day everyone.
