for things like macro viruses, I can see tripwire helping with compromises of Darwin.
 
Is that no longer the thinking?

You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end -- which you can never afford to lose -- with the 
discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.
