-1 Wrong.
Some have thought that your logic is sound. It isn't. I'll fix it for you:
Right of free speech + right of association = right of [the individual members of] groups, as [the individual members of] corporations, to speak freely [together, with their individual voices, joined for that purpose if so agreed or if the expressed purpose of forming said group or corporation].
It's a bit different then what you said. I'm sure the/. folks can point you to the appropriate wikipedia page for logical fallacies.
The particular issue here is mute. Such a corporation can "speak freely", and who cares, really.
The offensive part of the ruling is that money = speech. It doesn't. And AFAIK, corporations aren't really human, they are contracts only granted some limited recognition under the law for some limited purposes.
Because Safari 4 is out, and Chrome 4 is in beta, Having Firefox move to 4.0 sooner rather then later makes a great deal of sense based on that alone. It also seems that the features planed for what used to be 3.7 and the stuff shortly included in 3.6 when its released seems to be the second half of the 3.5 version jump justification.
... and web browsers can easily be set to ignore.
The average "Web developer" knows nothing about type, and thinks "kearning" is something you do to corn on the cob. Read a whole essay in Trainwreck Bold Oblique? No thanks.

That average "Web developer" will "design" crap sites that I don't go to anyway. Real developers, the ones who actually have jobs, will improve USABILITY, with well designed, well used typefaces.
It's true, the failure lies not with RIAA, the judge, the lawyers, or the defendant. The failure lies with the jury, a supposed jury of my peers. They are no peers of mine; they make me ashamed to be american.
People sometimes use these services in much the same way as email or snail mail; for personal communications. Do they ask for email passwords? How about any and all correspondence sent or received through the post office?

I've often wished the opposite, that more people learn to "do maths and logics"
I develop websites. I don't use AdBlock or NoScript. I don't have any problems.
