  1. Re:The solution is simple on Apple Is Fighting A Secret War To Keep You From Repairing Your Phone (huffingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    100% Accurate! We don't need any more crazy legislation or regulatory madness! Vote with your money and quit purchasing Apple if you don't like what happens when you don't take care of your device. Personally, I've owned 3 or 4 different versions of the IPhone and three different IPad models. None have ever needed a display replaced. I did replace the keyboard and trackpad on my MacBook Pro because I was computing and fell asleep and dumped a glass of water on the keypad. Replaced the keypad and touchpad and voila! So, as I say, if you are careless and can't fix your devices cheaply - then buy good insurance. Otherwise, buy Samsung or LG and get a life. We don't need more laws or over-paid government employees putting restrictions on companies that are already over-burdened with taxes and regulations.

  2. Re: That's a funny new definition of "entitlement" on After Netflix Crackdown On Border-Hopping, Canadians Ready To Return To Piracy (www.cbc.ca) · · Score: 1

    Actually Webster's says: 1 a : the state or condition of being entitled : right b : a right to benefits specified especially by law or contract 2 : a government program providing benefits to members of a specified group; also : funds supporting or distributed by such a program 3 : belief that one is deserving of or entitled to certain privileges I believe that fits into definition quite nicely! Also, don't go blaming this on the market. It's overly regulated free markets that cause such problems. A truly free market would not have such barriers.
