WTF?

my precioussss titleses

"will continue to invest in and support Skype clients on non-Microsoft platforms"

You mean like they did with Skype for Asterisk?

obvious

This ones easy, If you would try this using just one IP you'd be banned shortly for failing to login over and over. If you try the same thing from behind over 9000 proxies their IDS would not notice and you don't get a ban.

The IDS thing is probably the one thing that Facebook got right security wise. On the other hand it is to harsh for my taste sometimes. It's not like I'd put anything I consider worth something on Facebook.
