If you don't deploy it to a hundred percent it simply won't be 'the solution'
to the spoofing and man-in-the-middle problem as some people here like to
think. Saturation is important to the success of a protocol, think of blueray
vs. hd-dvd so you need not only to address the forbes500 but also
www.mylittlewebsitethatsellsstuff.cctld, that kind of thing is often run by
small companys that lack the clue you want people to have.
