Its a bit like how an insurance company works. For every person wanting to make a derivative work, there is a subtle risk that somewhere in the chain there will be litigation. This small fee helps cover that, and provides the slush to protect the properties it manages licensing for.
Of course, pointing out that email archival and retention guidelines apply to everyone regardless of so called "VIP" status is clearly not going to be well received. The VIPs never get treated like normal users. Cause of the specialness of their nature, being magical and all.
So, obviously they need more protection, so they can evade the purpose of the archival copies for legal proceedings. This is not destruction or tampering with evidence, this is all about the danger of libel, and the need for anonymity of the VIP. Totally.
Now then, using a regex to replace Hillary@clinton.org to XXXXXXX@XXXXXXX.XXX (which is the exact same number of characters, and thus won't break a binary if it is sensible) inside a.PST is pretty straight forward, and something a high level admin should be able to accomplish in a few minutes.
But this guy had to ask reddit.

The Jim Henson society will serve you with a libel suit!
Ms. Piggy was always a sow, and never underwent gender reassignment surgery! Her upper body strength comes from carrying her heavy purse all day, and certainly not from having high testosterone levels!
Rest assured, the lobby group mentioned in the fine article will petition to have standards and practices reinstated, clarifying this situation, to avoid any further libel against Ms. Piggy.
The hissing sound is just the feedback from the instruments at the NSA listening in citizen! There is no scandal here! Nixon pioneered the modern information collecting techniques we use today!

Given that Apple is apparently quite obscessed with making their device the same thickness as a sheet of onion skin paper, the issue is likely a combination of things.
Namely, thermal noise needs to be overcome with higher voltages, which then get switched at pretty high speeds. That switching of higher than normal voltages (because it is under load, and having to overcome passive cooling only) coupled with a most likely saturating floating ground, means RF signal leakage. Given that one of the proposed reasons for Apple's removal of the headphone jack was that they were having problems with RF noise being produced and picked up on the headphones (and nothing to do with "Courage") I find this likely, and suspect the issue to be more systemic than apple wants to admit, especially in light of the Samsung battery disaster.
(EG, the reality that you can't reasonably push a design that thin without having very real problems with the electronics does not fly well with the ivory tower designers with sticks up their asses at Apple, but their marketing droids pay better attention, and realize this is a potential problem they need to be mum about. I would expect higher rates of failure from out of expected tolerance voltages on devices driven hard, and apple blaming the users, rather than the hardware like they should be.)
To challenge the copyright cartels, the kind of rights holding group you envision needs to charge a simple one-off use fee if you intend to use the owned property to create a derivative work, to obtain a suitable license. That fee money is used to purchase additional properties that should be in the public domain.
As long as the fee is minimal (say, 10$, to make as many derivative works as you want), and retains some level of viral permanence (derivative works are given reciprocity for the group to be given authority to charge for additional licensing for people wanting to make yet more derivative works with both groups agreeing that neither has full control over the work, and thus neither party is able to create an exclusivity agreement to the works covered--EG, all agreements are inclusive, not exclusive) it would do a great job of assuring low cost licensing of properties, while keeping the likes of Disney from turning it into yet another Princess Powergrab for 170 years.
Such an org would need to have a very hard-lined, and restrictive charter to prevent it morphing into the MPAA on cocaine and crack though. (EG, even its own lawyers would be legally disbarred from trying to change its mission.)
Expect the MPAA, RIAA, and assorted vermin to rail against the very notion of such an org, in much the same way that Microsoft railed against the viral nature of the GPL though.
If the output waveforms are the same when plotted on an oscilloscope, then there is no difference between the amplifiers as far as sound quality is concerned.
Next you will say steel is not technology. Or that ceramic is not technology.
Technology is the application of science to change the human environment. The use of fire is technology. The combination of iron and carbon to make steel is technology.
The purposeful introduction of viral protiens to sensitize a human immune system to viral infectious agents is technology.
Not everything is about the newest and shiniest, AC.
Sometimes a nice jolt of nostalgia for a lost era in time just feels good. That's what this is for. Running a game in an emulator does not recreate the experience.
The whir and grind of the disk drive, the clacking of the keys, the authentic tones from the real sound chips... For a brief moment, one can feel like they were 8 years old again.
That is what this is about. Now, go take your soulless devotion to consumerism elsewhere.
You can buy replacement blank diskettes still. (The US government has legacy systems that need them, assuring that the ancient tech will persist forever.)
If their shovelware was better written, it would work in WINE, and then they could still have it preinstalled. Maybe even easier to preinstall it, since a WINE prefix can be straight up copied between machines without having to use disk imaging software.
It at least can display 4:3 content, if the resolution is high enough. A 4:3 display trying to display widescreen 16:9 on the other hand, often results in crushed vertical resolution because it has to scale the horizontal to fit the smaller screen.
What I want to see, is screen resolutions that are better than a stupid assed TV panel. We had higher screen resolutions on CRTs in the 90s than we do today.

I don't think psts do, but don't quote me on that. Just export one, mangle it real good, then see if it imports.
If not, try something else.

Then where would the barometric valve go!?
I mean, Really!? Think about these things! That valve is clearly a necessary feature!
while not human feces, you could send him a nice bag of manure as a gift using amazon.

A proper circuit with proper drainage would be a whole 1mm thicker!
The GODS at apple's aesthetics department spoke, and the lowly peons were told to MAKE IT HAPPEN.
They did. You are listening to it wrong!

Not self sustainable.

Sure you can, unless you believe in magic.
If the output waveforms are the same when plotted on an oscilloscope, then there is no difference between the amplifiers as far as sound quality is concerned.
The fuck they arent.
Next you will say steel is not technology.
Or that ceramic is not technology.
Technology is the application of science to change the human environment. The use of fire is technology. The combination of iron and carbon to make steel is technology.
The purposeful introduction of viral protiens to sensitize a human immune system to viral infectious agents is technology.
Science enables technology.
that projection is based on dangerous assumptions.
1) the amount of arable land remains constant. (It isnt. It is in decline.)
2) Use of fertilizers can continue unabated (It cant. Fertilizer use degrades farmland quality in just a few decades.)
3) The amount of fresh water for agricultural use wont suffer shortages (Again, not th case.)
So, forgive me if I call bullshit on that.

Apple II did not use MFM encoding.
Wikipedia is my friend.
They DID make an 800k 3.5" drive for the apple II, but it was not popular, as it needed many expensive upgrades to work.
Those 360k 5.25" disks should work, but to use the other side you will have to cut a notch.
this?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
supports rs232, ppp, tcp/ip, multitasking, and some other useful bits...
sure. i can think of some uses for such a system.
I forget.. Did the apple II use 5.25" floppies, or 3.5" floppies?
I remember seeing both...
That said, here's some 360k 5.25" disks.

You may need a floppy drive to write to them on a modern system though.
You can buy replacement blank diskettes still. (The US government has legacy systems that need them, assuring that the ancient tech will persist forever.)
uninstalling would be equally easy. just delete the prefix folder and make a new one.
If their shovelware was better written, it would work in WINE, and then they could still have it preinstalled. Maybe even easier to preinstall it, since a WINE prefix can be straight up copied between machines without having to use disk imaging software.
16:9 isn't so bad.
It at least can display 4:3 content, if the resolution is high enough.
