Fair point, but an alliance with a large multinational may be a double edges sword: likely increased IP protection (but may that be sufficient as put into question by the links of the previous post?) but also possibly puts them more in the spotlight. Secondly, does this alliance guarantee IP security at all CWE sites, including Chile, Mauritius? One mail from an infected computer there to Australia or UK could be enough.
Time will tell. Thanks for insightful answer
