When Are Security Patches a Bad Thing?

April 6th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Over at Green Llama there’s a discussion brewing over why people complain about all Microsofts patches and updates, yet nobody seems to have issue with the frequent WordPress update releases.

Leroy is claiming it to be the natural pointless anti-Microsoft attitude that exists. My point was that since Windows comes with such a high price tag, we have a higher level of expectation from them, while WordPress, being free (and open source) carries more leniency in the community.

I imagine it’s a bit of both. Head on over and speak your mind. Though, the conversation has slowly degraded into a discussion about cartoons (Spiderman is so much cooler than SpongeBob), I’m sure no good ideas will go unnoticed.

      I don’t know of any blog where the discussion can start on software security and end at Spongebob, besides Green Llama. That is the beauty of the site, I think.
