> Thus, SaaSS is equivalent to running proprietary software with spyware and a universal back door.
I actually agreed with the article up to that point, but this is wheasel-wording and kinda dishonest. Microsoft's backdoor is universal as it has access to your entire system. The described SaaSS backdoor isn't universal - it only pertains to that particular service and no other services (or non-services) can be affected. Thus, given the previous definition of the word, it is not "universal"
This wheasel-wording only detracts from the point being made and may alienate people who would normally agree.
