    Your privacy has been invaded? Would you mind explaining how? Did someone crack your server and put a link to the NYT there? Did they spam you with a link to the NYT? Call you up on the phone while you were having dinner or engaging in some other important activity and tell you about it?

    No?

    What's You visited /. and saw the link there?

    Did someone hold a knife or gun on you and force you to visit /.?

    No?

    What? You came there of your own free will and saw the link? OK, I think I'm starting to a get a handle on the situtation? You must own /., and they invaded your privacy by putting the link there.

    No? You're just a visitor?

    Oh.

    Pardon me, but I think I'm having a hard time believing your privacy has been invaded.

    So who gets to do the same thing with a product from Microsoft?

    * Scratches head

    * Installs Windows 2000

    * Installs Mozilla 1.1 and makes it the default browser and e-mail client

    * Installs Litestep as the shell

    * Installs Magellan Explorer(free) or Opus Directory(rather expensive but kicks ass)

    * Makes disk image

    * Distributes disk image

    * Hides in cave for 20 years
