    So true. Corporations should never be held accountable for their products. That's practically communism.

    and if you don't need pre-rolls, or interstitials, or playlists, or analytics,

    You're correct. I don't need any of that. All off that is just bullshit added in to annoy the person trying to watch a video.

    Sometimes.

    Nope, all the time. I've never once had a price match not accepted from online stores like Amazon, Newegg, etc. by Best Buy, Frys, etc.

    And then I have to find a salesman, show them the price, argue them into it (as they try to claim they only price match brick and mortar), and deal with their hard sales and trying to talk me into buying a warranty. I'd rather just buy it on Amazon and not deal with their salesmen. Unless I absolutely want it today I'm not even going to ask them to match.

    Nope, you simply walk up to the cashier, show them the price on Amazon and they price match. Every time I've done it it takes less than a minute at Best Buy. And I've done this at multiple locations.

    My point is that your premise is entirely wrong. It hasn't frustrated anything. See: NSA.

    How does Trump want free speech? Trump wants to rewrite libel laws so he can sue news outlets he disagrees with under the guise of "false reporting" (aka quoting his statements that embarrass him).

    Your complaint is highly amusing since you ignore how Trump wants to abuse libel laws to shut down reporting he doesn't like.

    So, yes, if I have to choose I would pick Hillary over Herr Trump.

    Your post sounds great except for the flawed premise about the Internet. Governments have been walling-off; censoring and monitoring what people can on both the Internet and Web for more than a decade now.
