I don't have 5 questions, but I have one that I always, always ask: what's your story?

This is no joke. It reminds me of when Skype used to be secure then somehow a backdoor was introduced following (or before?) the acquisition by Microsoft. History repeats itself, and humans have yet to learn from the past.
