[Moderator's note: It is not supposed to be the moderator's job to read
a link and then summarize for the readers it is interesting to click
on. In the future, posters should provide at least a few sentences
explaining why a link is of interest or I'm going to simply stop
forwarding them.
In the current instance, the article is about a growing problem -- the
lack of good quality random numbers in VMs provided by services like EC2
and the effect this has on security. --Perry]
