Sounds good :)
The emergency services system sounds good; I know of a laboratory which had a "slightly more exothermic than planned reaction" a few years ago and "understandably" the Fire Brigade wanted to know what radiochemicals were in the building. At this point the DBA was the most important person onsite (oddly enough the report was very quickly added to their system).

Re: The lessons will be costly in money and lives
having a heart attack the last thing you want is the doctor having mistyped his password wrong for the third time and locking his account.
This seems like a good scenario for RFID chips; my physiotherapists have them in their badges and just tap the badge near on a sensor near the computer, this gives them access to the appointments system. If they want to look at X-rays etc. then they need badge + password. You could see how the trauma staff could have the speedy access in area where every second counts and then in other areas need more security.

Who in their right mind has internet/computer controlled and connected refrigerators?
A lot of drugs, blood etc need to be kept cool, having monitoring of the conditions would be useful. for example, if a drug is kept at room temperature for too long then it could be chucked away, a fridge could notice some odd parameters and have an engineer look at it etc.
The fridges etc. really should be on a separate network to the rest of the hospital though and definitely not on the Internet.

Re: one of the world's "big four" accountancy firms
I wonder how much they pay MS Azure to host it and the cost of the reputation damage/compensation compared to running their own systems?
I notice that the article refers to Azure and not Office 365; which suggests that Deloitte were running their own systems in Azure rather than just paying MS to do the lot.

Re: Directors should resign
They allowed their company to become dependent upon one large customer.
They may have assumed that they'd pick up another big customer in time. Moreover, I can't imagine that the VC and/or shareholders would be very happy with a company that turns down someone like Apple as a customer.

Re: So we're not really talking about EA's then...
I once worked with a PM who loved printing out his Gantt Charts having made sure that all the dependencies fed off each other even if that wasn't the case. Some of the Devs would deliberately complete some of the discrete tasks out of order so he'd have to redo his huge diagram. Other than it being a bit of fun this also meant that he would leave the developers unmolested to write code instead of unnecessary paperwork.

Offshoring
Those plans were balanced by ~35 hires in Beijing, China and ~100 people in Pune, India, plus the intention to open a new San Francisco office and fill it with up to 150 people as part of an effort to concentrate management positions in the Bay Area.
If offshoring is so good; then why not do the management too?

The privacy of our customers is of great importance to us
Paul Moore went public with his findings after failing to get the retailer to act even 12 months after first reporting the issue.
The privacy of our customers is of great importance to us and we will continue to do our utmost to ensure that this is properly protected.
Somehow those two statements don't really match up!
