Re: Time to get a new CEO. Do you really think that replacing the CEO would have fixed this, or will fix it? So next time there is a problem, the new CEO should be ousted aswell? And then the next, and so on and so forth?
Time for new software engineering staff/managers more like it. They are the ones creating the problems, not the CEO, who quite probably has no idea that this kind of stuff is even being created. But someone always has to be responsible right? Just boot the CEO out the door, instead of the fools who actually create the problems, let them keep their jobs and get away unscathed, and continue to develop security and privacy holes into important telecommunications systems... Yeah, that sounds about right!
I cant believe that every time something goes wrong (with any company mind you, not just AT&T - Eurostar is another one that comes to mind but thats OT) everyone says the CEO should be ousted. Its as if they think the CEO always knows about every single little flaw, defect, hole, etc, and as if they always know something is going to happen one day and that they just let it happen. Youre kidding me right?
Ok fair enough, some probably do, and those are the ones that should be ousted because they are dangerous in this precise kind of way.
The CEO is there to run the business, not to review the code that developers are pushing out. To me it sounds like they handled this quite well. A flaw was "discovered", and they patched it up shortly after being "told" about it. I use quotes because its possible someone knew about it... Fire them for being such a twit. |
