They could lease naming rights to companies. I can see it now.
The intersteller transport to the nearby colony planet of Godaddy.com will depart shortly. There will be a brief layover on the forest moon of Playtex Gentle Glide. I remind you again that exporting any sentient vegetation from the planet Monsanto is strictly forbidden.
Well it goes like this. Ballmer had just scored some really good crack and was smoking it when they asked him about the next operating system Microsoft should design....
Exactly. Because the slackers in private industry often aren't willing to toss money down the basic research hole. Basic research is a bad business decision, because its not likely to turn a profit. The private industry slackers sit and wait for the unprofitable basic research to be done before they snap up ends up worth something and sell it. Then after they are rich they bitch about having to pay taxes to fund these worthless basic research projects that got them rich in the first place.
I will answer that one for you. It wasn't the admins who had uptime fetishes. It was heads of various business departments. To their mind a single minute of downtime was completely unacceptable, no matter the reason. I remember a sign in one NOC I worked in that stated something, "Each hour of downtime costs $500,000" or whatever bullshit the number actually was. The CIO had on his IT mission statement, "guarantee 99.9% uptime".
So in essence, admins value up-time because downtime = an avalanche of shit all the way down from the CIO who doesn't care why there is downtime, only that he'll have to explain to the CEO over golf that there was downtime.
But the ruling makes sense. If I were to sue you because I think you may have caused me injury, the first thing the court is going to ask is, what is the injury?
You have to at least be able to say, "Judge, I was spied on." Going to the judge and saying, "I feel in my heart I was spied on" will, and should, get you kicked out of the courtroom.
Yes, its much better at an American company, like HP. They have exported all their support to India, so obviously the customer experience is going to be much better than dealing with the French.
No, Lucas pretty much stole from all over Kurasawa's filmography though I think the Hidden Fortress is the bulk of the Star Wars plot. But he did steal from other movies. Take for example the famous scene in Yojimbo, where our hero is confronted by an outlaw who boasts "Don't mess with us! We're dangerous men! I've got the death penalty in three districts!"
At which point Yojimbo cuts off his arm.

eventually, processor power is going to be powerful enough that you really don't need to improve any more for casual functions.

Well, you'd have to add some unwarranted hubris, then you'll be in the surface pro area.
