... Rather, it's always the attempted cover-up. I asked a clear question on my blog yesterday about why a mainstream IT article covering Centera went from white in the morning to black by the same afternoon?
EMC responded with a lot of huffing and puffing, even a technical diatribe. But apart from not even addressing the technology behind a simple MD5 hack to intentionally make data disappear forever on earlier generations of Centera, they avoided the elephant in the room altogether.
Why did they try (and fail) to cover it all up?
Based on EMC's track record to date, expecting a straight answer on this critical question is about as likely as EMC being voted the best place to work for in the US by Fortune Magazine.
Amping up the exposure on this whole topic has been my aim from the beginning. I never expected the other side to help out quite this much, but I am satisfied my goal has been accomplished. Barring any unforeseen events, I'm going to retire this topic on my end for now.
Bercovici ... OUT! :)
