Flagged. Boycott Novell is not a reliable source for anything. They think pretty much everything is a Microsoft conspiracy or a Bill Gates conspiracy. Here are some of their claims. Bill Gates controls PBS, the BBC, and most major newspapers. Also the medical journal The Lancet. Gates' work in Africa is part of a plan to commit genocide there to clear the way for Western recolonization. "Teach for America" is a secret Gates front out to destroy the teaching profession, presumably to clear the way for Gates (who they identify as the de facto Minister of Education in the US due to his control over the Obama administration) to take over the schools.
Microsoft is still a powerful entity. Considering how irresponsibly this vulnerability was disclosed, I would not completely discard the relationship.
I am not downplaying Heartbleed's severity: everyone, everywhere, should change every passwords they care about used in the last couple years and this is the kind of recommendation you want to be spread far and wide, but spreading it before major distros have had a chance to offer patches caused a lot more trouble than it should have caused.
