Sure, but it hides the risks associated with the same kind of problem (assuming unintentional) in a highly distributed system. This is especially when the problem is distributed over many fiefdoms. Being able to call out a single giant entity on HN is much easier than trying to get the world to agree on fixing something. Source: we still use SMTP and we still have no common way to authenticate a sender without a centralized email system. (Yes, I know about SPF, DKIM, etc.) |
