I'm somewhat shocked to see the names of the companies that have joined forces with Microsoft in this endeavor to hide information from users.

Mark Loveless has posted exploit code on his NMRC site. The tools offered up by the RAZOR team can be used by admins as well as attackers.

This most definitely seems to be an attempt to form an information cartel.

One question does come to mind...if BindView has signed up for this, and NMRC.ORG (is|was originally) Mark Loveless's site, how does hellNbak's call for Informaiton Anarchy fit into the equation?
