So this boils down to Microsoft believing it has mastered Jedi mind tricks, "Trust us, were Microsoft", or Security through obscurity suddenly revealed at the secret weapon to combat hacker despite the damage it may have on the business community and the customer base. Apparently this technique should only be practiced my trained professionals MCSE Microsoft Patch plan personnel it is generally to be avoided by all by the most seasoned PR patch specialists..

So Microsoft has NO program to correctly communicate the truth of what its vulnerabilities are and what it is patching. Game over, Microsoft looses what remaining credibility they had in the bank.
