I find myself avoiding products and services from companies that try to crap on my rights. I believe I am not the only one, since over the years many of these companies have withered or died. They can blame piracy, they can make up excuses for their shrinking bottom lines, but in the end the cause of their demise is their hostility to the very people that made them great in the first place.
All those AOL users who leave their boxes up 24/7 are infected with cooties that use their machines to haxx0r the rest of the world and steel their megabites, oh n0s!
Its amateur time!

I was handling purchasing for one of major retail chains at the time the first wave of 3D glasses came out. The chief complaint wasnt resolution or refresh rate.

Many tires manufacturers embed serialized RFID sensors and that data is already being tracked as an "experiment" and for "purely statistical" purposes. Your browser is embedded with a unique ID number. Your other apps are embedded with unique IDs that seep into the obvious and inobvious meta-data on the documents you produce and "touch". The technocrati walk around with pocketfuls of gadgets that broadcast various data that is easily collected for corrolative retrieval. Your online habits are collected and analyzed by industry and goverments (US doesnt have a monopoly on online spying). There is no privacy and there is no spoon.
I think we need a goverment controlled Ministry of Truth... Goverment being the only impartial entity can insure that we get the Truth and only the Truth...

Hey since IBM whored out their hardware divisions overseas, does anyone still gives a rats ass about what they have to say?

It was either Shakespeare of Family Guy that said that.
But does it support Linux?! Ummm, wait... DOH!
The technically illiterate are passing legislation on technology!

Actually he is not half as black as many think he is... Either way neither race no over abundance of Whitey Guilt is a basis for choosing a President.
