No. Customer demand should play the *least* part in security evolution.
The *main* thing that security analysts and security developers should
focus on are the capabilities of the opposition, whomever they may be.
Your foe is not your customer, and if he is he will not lead you toward
pleasant waters. Again, your thinking is dangerous.
