The article is interesting, but title is fud.
Besides, all this is not unexpected:

I somehow feel this is good for any of those countries in between the western capital based democracies and the extreme of North Korea: it will backfire sooner or later, but without any of this silly measures trigging public awareness, people would keep believing in their leaders and brainwashed culture.
Maybe it is what it takes to move forward from a dictatorship to a (fake) democracy these days.
If he calls himself a security aware sysadmin but he is somehow breaking his own beliefs for productivity/delivery reasons, I don't see much of an interest.

Maybe that's exactly the reason why consoles are successful.
It provides an unified device, which lasts around 8 years, which permits to play recent titles, which is simple to setup up and which is comparatively cheap.
The PC I'm typing this message is a 9 years old thinkpad, and I would not attempt to play any "less than 5 years old games" on it.
Some people don't give to much of a shit about highly impressive graphics and just want to play the fucking game without checking the "minimal configuration required".
However if consoles tend to be like PCs (same or worst hardware, same or worst upgrade process, etc), they will just become meaningless.
