Ah, but you can't stop there. You gotta go after anybody who buys their products from them directly, or anybody in their stock portfolio, or pays taxes to a government that protects their copyrights and patents and international trade agreements. Yes, that means you!
You know, knocking out propaganda outlets and all, but this is another reason not to have monopolies. A single virus with a short list of targets will burn down the whole house.
The solution to long lines at the DMV is not "more clerks". It is to move most of the services to a website so there is less need to go to the DMV in the first place.
Yes, with internet services provided by CenturyLink!
Please, the internet still isn't ready for anything more serious than Twitter gossip.
Anybody can put up their own website and content on their own server
*Ahem* Check your service contract first. And you better hope your content doesn't offend your service provider, or the state either. See, our real problem is our dependence on these services that are really agents of the state.
Yeah, so it does... That doesn't lessen the voters' responsibility for the people they reelect. This is on their shoulders. Any complaints from the outside (tourists) or the inside (locals) should be directed at them. Nobody forces them to vote for bling.
Less cruft to update. The package does all those things, and it's still a smaller download than Firefox. And, it doesn't look like Chrome
Unfortunately it seems that browser development is too resource intensive for a community-driven solution to be feasible.
You're kidding, right?
Appears so! Quite a food fight there. I wonder if the bug was ever reopened... Talk about security nightmares...
They have to get their pistachios from somewhere, you know...
So was World War 2... No, the collective has learned nothing. The same party rules today. You'd think... but what does it get you?

Those with cards and those without...
Only 30% using cash is not good
Guess we need a law...
That's what authoritarianism is, a fetish.
Yes, I was assuming the electronic kind.
Dog collars are next. It's only logical. A mere 'alarm' is no fun. Ain't authoritarianism sexy? Bunch of dirty old men running the government
Switch back? I never left.
20 years of interface and functional stability is damn near newsworthy.

Just enough to pay the bonuses to the top execs that ran it into the ground...
A response to my comment was deleted. Do the admins care to spell out why?? Or will it remain a sweet mystery of life?
Well yeah, how else can you get people to want to outlaw it?
It seems that everywhere we look, we find that Microsoft is managed poorly.
You check the bottom line?
but they can't touch me or my systems.
That might be true, after your ISP decides to snip the cable/fiber..
Unless it looks good on the spreadsheet, that kind of stuff just isn't going to happen. Their purpose is singular.
There is exactly one single point of failure in the entire internet, the service provider, gotta get around them...

Yeah well, the fish heading south are going to bump into a huge land mass before they get near the pole.
Even without mass media spoon feeding, people have to take their own initiative and raise hell.
Change takes time.

How/when are we going to get around them to make this a non-issue?
