IM Status - security?
Beyond question you need to educate users to be more cautious, but that's no excuse for manufacturers to deliver product knowing it has no security, and knowing that trying to retrofit security is piecemeal and haphazard at best. Or are we still following the plan that first to market is king and the provider has no responsibility? Maybe developers can get their minds around selling the security benefits of the new toys?
