John T. Chambers must go

Via my blog at http://www.newerawisp.blogspot.com
Yesterday I asked readers accross the Internet to write to John T. Chambers, President of Cisco Systems regarding Black Hat confrence and Michael Lynn Saga. since then Things at Cisco systems moved in the negative direction. Among the negative happenings at Cisco the following stand out. 1. Cisco used its legal Muscle for Lynn to voluntarily agree to a permanent Injunction, 2. agree to refrain from participation at Black Hat Confrence, 3. Chambers issued a statement that Lynn was silenced because he had obtained the vital information illegally and had to be silenced, 4. Cisco issued a baa humbug patch to cure the flaw disclosed by Lynn.

This is not the way a CEO of a major Multinational should act. He can't silence a researcher after his result uncovers negative information. People can't trust Cisco. Nobody knows how good the patch, issued by Cisco is if people can't talk about if the Patch is useless. Microsoft issues daily patches to windows operating systems. I know because I'v Windows XP.

The least that Chambers should have done is to 1. vacate the temporary Injunction, 2. Hired the researcher Michael Lynn back and 3. assured the world that he is as concerned about the matter as Michael Lynn is.

John T Chambers can't be trusted. He has to go, not Michael Lynn the researcher.

I ask every reader to write to John T Chambers asking him to resign as Cisco CEO and telling him you are writing to every Director to fire him if he does not resign.

I'm listing below the names of every Director of Cisco Systems and his Assress. Please write asking him to fire Jon T. Chambers if he does not resign.
