RetroCoder Threatens Security Vendors
john83 writes "RetroCoder the company that brings you SpyMon, a commercial keylogger is trying to stop vendors of security software from looking at their software. RetroCoder uses a EULA that prohibits anti-spyware publishers / software houses from downloading, running or examining the software in any way. Essentially, they're trying to hide a key logger behind copyright law." While they are certainly not the first to do so, it is interesting that companies still take this approach.
Win XP was a dup of Win 2000 and no one seems to complain.
G.W.Bush is a dup of G.Bush and no one seems to complain.
Or do they?
That's bad meta moderation. The proper moderation is for the first one to be modded up and any following ones modded redundant. An additional problem with meta moderating unfair is that it even punishes people who did the moderation before the later posts showed up.
I know EXACTLY what you mean. I feel the same way about the commentary provided by folks regarding those aforementioned "twenty people" (that'd be you).
