Gates' Trustworthy Computing Email
Microsoft | at | by Mike
I'm writing to you, as a reader of one of Microsoft's customer newsletters, about an issue of particular importance to those of us who routinely use computers in our work and personal lives - making computing more trustworthy. Trustworthy Computing involves a lot of things - reliability, security, privacy and business integrity.
Before I share my thoughts about this in more detail, I want to give you some context on why I am sending this email. This is the first in an occasional series of mails that CEO Steve Ballmer and I, and periodically other Microsoft executives, will be sending to people who are interested in hearing from us about technology and public-policy issues that we believe are important to computer users, our industry and everyone who cares about the future of high technology. This is part of our commitment to ensuring that Microsoft is more open about communicating who we are and what we are doing.
