Cloud security nay-sayers need a heavy dose of reality

It was the start of 1978, and the end of the Sex Pistols, when John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) famously left the stage in San Francisco saying "ever get the feeling you've been cheated?" As someone who takes more than a passing interest in the IT security business, I can't help but think that maybe the cloud is having something of a Johnny Rotten moment right now. OK, maybe 'cheated' is a bit strong, but there's certainly quite a bit of misdirection going on.
