Microsoft says WebGL isn't secure enough
From http://www.h-online.com/security/new...h-1262818.html

In the spirit of the famous articlePDF by Edsger Dijkstra, Microsoft says, in a piece entitled "WebGL considered harmful", that the 3D technology is not secure enough for its products. The blog post lists three reasons for this conclusion: first, browser support for WebGL gives web applications direct access to hardware; second, there could be security flaws in third-party software (such as in graphics drivers); and finally, Microsoft says that operating systems do not currently offer any protection against denial-of-service attacks on graphics cards.
