Well, that's a completely different -- and highly relevant point. Not only
is it dangerous to connect a Windows machine to the Internet -- but, as a
*bad* netizen, it uses resources and inflicts harm on its neighbors email.
However, this also shows up the shortcomings of a completely open system
such as the Internet.
Let's face it -- much as the Windows was never meant to be connected to the
Internet -- the Internet was never designed to be a public airwave.
There are better, more complex, designs that may be better than the
Internet.

Those are good concerns at a certain very basic way of looking at things.
Yes.
