  1. Even the latest version of Microsoft products are vulnerable, it is the rate of zero day exploits discovered that determine if a given operating system is high or low risk. SE Linux and BSD Unix-based operating systems have a much better track record and if correctly managed are even less vulnerable. The problem with Windows it that it is a conga line of security holes made easy to use so that incompetent IT pretenders can cobble together systems that seem to work but are full of holes waiting to be found. None of the proposals addressed this core issue and instead we have a digital identity proposal that would have the side effect of having a single entity be in a position to track almost everything you do based on who is asking to verify you and when. Beware the digital ID proposal, it may well be a trojan horse attack against your liberty and privacy, if you are not given 100% control over your data including always knowing who holds it and having the right to demand that it is deleted whenever you want.
