i could be wrong, but in the article igor linked to, i'm pretty sure they say exactly the opposite is true. igor's article is a reply to another article, which says a lot of things like that which would be very worrisome, if they were true, however apparently they are not.
disclaimer : i don't actually know anything about this, i only just read the article. but i recommend you read it as well ; the author seems rather level-headed, and clearly knows more about this than i do.
