I don't believe its the right system and the way it should be done but thats how accountability is viewed within the current system (which I think should change).

The top has to have the ability and leeway for things to go wrong so that they can take risks. To make sure they take the right risks they are stakeing a % of their pay if its in options or bonuses as well as in their reputation.

You might be right in the certain situations but this is an open tool with a wide array of possible uses for people. Such a pessimistic approach doesn't allow for any exploration when think about its potential uses.

My original thought was, so its a network drive huh? But when you think about the fact that everyone has 128GB Surfaces they take everywhere remotely this is really powerful and I can image a lot easier to administer. Love how they have integrated and just added a simple icon. Well done Dropbox

prosecutors have a duty to 'justice' not simply to deliver the strongest result against the defendant. This is why they have to disclose information that suggests innocence.

As long as litigation is of a positive net present value (i.e. expected return is positive) then they have a duty to their shareholders to undertake it. It's just the way of the world, its not like the CEO is taking into account this when thinking of 'the way microsoft should be' its just the state of tech innovation at the moment.
