If you said "you'd be exposing data to the commies", the overall reaction would have been "Wow.. Success". :) Remember that the whole *idea* was that everything connected to the Arpanet was there because it's purpose in life was to be accessible to as many people as possible - it's where the "Information wants to be free" meme *came* from. How do you sell "security and lock it down" to the comp center director who is intentionally burning through several million dollars a year to make the site as open as possible to the world? ;)
