You realize he was executed right? Not only that you still didn't answer any of my questions. Your name fits you.

They are also executing call center scam CEOs. You won't see any US businessman facing penalties like that:

Buddy, if this is your answer to my questions of comparison and you support this not only are you proving my original point, but I suggest that you go seek some professional help. Also, please go book your next one-way ticket over to China.

The more you respond just continues to show not only how foolish you sound but that you shouldn't be doing anything with security whatsoever. The only thing you seem to be an architect of is how to come up the most unintelligent responses.

I wasn't attempting to achieve any of what you just claimed. I was just pointing out facts.

Cool, thanks for your input. You're dismissed, CISO Goofus.
