If the global economy is depending on a free, unguaranteed third-party
VoIP service for critical communications, it deserves to go down in
flames. I don't use Skype for anything important. It's nothing more than
a "nice to have".

A tempest in a teapot. Embarrassing for Skype and eBay? Sure! A sign of
Armageddon? Hardly.

If anything, this is another warning against relying on Microsoft Windows.
