For the vendor, there’s an economic balancing act: how much more will your users be annoyed by unpatched software than they will be by the patch, and is that reduction in annoyance worth the cost of patching? Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos owns an equally ridiculous array of companies and ventures outside of Amazon. There’s Nash…

“It’s Pretty Normal Practice To Be Honest,” Said PayPal Spokesman Anuj Nayar
“I thought I could make an easier version,” Cherian said. “Something that anyone off the street could use.
