While I would never argue there are companies who do not push internal
data over the Internet, I am surprised you think that proves no company
pushes internal data over the Internet.
As for counter examples, I know of a few, but confidentiality does not
allow me to discuss corporate network topology on a public mailing
list. Does this mean it never happens (i.e. I am lying)? If you
believe that, so be it. However, the facts are still the facts, no
matter what your belief is.
