Wisdom of the Shares

Software vendors stand and take notice: stock prices demonstrated to dip subsequent to discovery of application vulnerabilties. Schneier points out via the Register's take that he'd like to see more long-term answers. I agree with that - there is more that we can do, but I think we as consumers of this can do more than crow about its limitiations. Specifically, in my mind, this answers a question that we've had for a while now: does the public at large even notice software vulnerabilities? Apparently, it does.
