Help Keep Vmyths.com Alive

Wednesday July 9, 2003
Rob Rosenberger's Vmyths.com, since 1995 the Web's premiere clearinghouse for information on network security hype and hoaxes, needs your support to stay in operation. Rosenberger, who has often confronted the antivirus industry with charges of exaggerating security threats to foster hysteria and create more demand for its products, does not accept industry advertising on the site, instead relying primarily on donations to ensure its independence and integrity. Now operating in the red, Vmyth.com's continued existence after Rosenberger's return from an upcoming military tour of duty will depend entirely on whether or not we can put enough money in its coffers by then. Donate now. News. More info.
