        this is an assertion which many have claimed is false.
        based on empericial evidence.

Care to offer a couple of examples of this empirical evidence ?

        attached.   care to provide counter examples?

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.
