Actually, Gibson is considered by many to be a very poor source for
computer security advice. Gibson has been fooling a lot of people for
several years, now, so don't feel too bad about having believed him. He
mixes just enough facts in with his hysteria and hyperbole to be
plausible. Despicably, Gibson is assuming a presumably morally superior
pose as a White Knight out to rescue the poor, defenseless computer
user, all the while offering solutions that do no good whatsoever.
