Does anyone else find this a bit scary?

In the coming Windows Vista (the OS formerly known as Longhorn… Mmoooo!), Microsoft is promising the ability to access applications and desktops over the Internet without a virtual private network.

Considering their past and current track record, is anyone but me just a tad nervous about trusting M$ to VPN their data around the internet?
