[asterisk-biz] Brokerage Firms and Asterisk?

[Stephane Bakhos]

Sounds like standard Microsoft FUD tactics to me.
As google seems to indicate, the warning is mostly due to idiots not being 
able to configure a somewhat secure installation of Asterisk, something 
that can also happens on Microsoft.

You could counter with the dozens of windows related warnings the FBI 
issued, about their server security in general.
