I am not sure I like this crazy talk about IT departements becoming judge, jury
and executioner and about firing people left and right for violating some
arbitrarily made up rules. ("your password is only 28 characters long, you are fired!").

My dislike nomatter, in practice, all this KGB stuff comes to nothing when you try
to fire a Nobel-prize-winning professor or when you discover that the boss
of your boss is reading playboy instead of nytimes.
