In an e-mail sent to employees Wednesday and leaked to the Associated Press, Gates said that the company intends to shift from a focus on features to spotlighting security and privacy.
“When we face a choice between adding features and resolving security issues, we need to choose security,” Gates wrote in the e-mail. “Our products should emphasize security right out of the box.”
Calling the new initiative “Trustworthy Computing,” Gates billed it as the “highest priority” for the company.
Gates also addressed privacy. “Users should be in control of how their data is used,” Gates reportedly wrote. “It should be easy for users to specify appropriate use of their information including controlling the use of e-mail they send.”
