Two Pseudo-Randomly Generated Thoughts

1. This is the Information Age; knowledge disseminates. People who think security by obfuscation is helping anyone really need to wake up and smell the coffee.

2. Not only does it not make any sense to have not fully tested a fix for a problem known for so long, but it makes even less sense to not have released the fixes out early (under the guise of something else if necessary) so that by the time the official reveal is made, there's actually nothing to report other than "problem solved". So this seems like a massive double-fail in handling these issues.
