WTF? If anything it was shown that the silly monitoring application had the spyware pieces *DISABLED* on iPhones whereas Android phone sellers had it enabled. Google's original bits did not have it, since Google have their own way of tracking users:)
And that's because all the people involved are being actively stupid. It *IS* possible to have a few standard interfaces. They are just too damned lazy to do so.
My god. You really think that? What is wrong with you people?! A company does something that is in the right direction, and it's because they feel guilty?
And if they don't, it's because they are assholes.
Talk about a catch-22.
What about your other electronic equipment? Where are they designed and manufactured and assembled? Why do they get a fucking free pass?
What the fuck are you on? How is it so tightly integrated like IE? Does another music player not work if you delete iTunes? Does deleting iTunes causes your computer not to run, can't install updates and any number of OS essential tasks to stop working?
Jesus, so you don't like it, but do you have to throw in all the lies as well?
Oh. You got beat up by jocks in high school, so now the [party of your choice] and Bill Gates are the worst. I see it now, it all makes sense. Please, tell me about other things you hate.
Most politicians are hypocritical. That is not the question at hand. You are apparently unable to see the analogy of normal average hypocritical and being a super-super-star. Let me see if I can make it clearer.
Normal politicians == normal hypocrites. GOP politicians (most - but *NOT* all) = Olympic level hypocrites.
Remember back in the high school days? You have a bunch of kids, a few are more athletic than others. Some are pretty darn good. But mostly, about the best you can say for them is "not too bad". A couple might get scouted and offered a college athletic scholarship.
Microsoft/GOP would be like the Olympic competitor in being hypocritical.
Did you not read the summary or did you recently get a lobotomy? The summary clearly lays out the dick moves he pulled. Nothing in his lame excuse drivel clears any of that shit up other than saying other people are wrong.
what makes you think I used my real name when I was forced to sign in to battle.net for SC2?
And really, you are sucking too hard on the koolaid nipple. SC2 and D3 is obviously a single player game with multi player options. Just because they claim it so doesn't make it so. I've never heard of people wanting to take their offline game character online - any idiot can see that these are two different games.
Did I say I expect to play online games without an account?
However, I expect to play single player games *WITHOUT* a fucking online account, such as StarCraft 2 or Diablo 3.
Further more, I expect to be able to play without having to RESET MY FUCKING PASSWORD EVERYTIME MY ISP CHANGES MY IP ADDRESS. This requirement is help push people towards authenticators.
And real IDs.
Make no mistake. This isn't really about authenticators, this is about collecting real IDs.
Isn't your problem with the idiot fanbois rather than with Apple then? Since Apple doesn't pay the idiot fanbois, I'm not sure how you managed to blame Apple for the idiot fanbois behavior...?

So how I am supposed to take Stallman seriously?

I point you to Honey Boo Boo.

Because they actually design their stuff in California, unlike every other brand?
Seriously, that chip on your shoulder? Doesn't it get heavy?
Not sure what's your point? Is it a good thing or a bad thing that Apple is moving some parts of the manufacture of their computers to USA?
Oh, look, the ocean is wet and the sky is tall.
And why the hell is it modded informative?

If you *HADN'T* paid for it, you are *NOT* a customer, but a user.
So off to the premium rate number for you.
please! You're trying to make sense with an idiot? And you think that'll work?
I see your problem. You do not understand there are levels of dickishness and fuckupness.
The GOP have shown themselves to be superstars at this game, to such an extent that they managed to blind their devoted followers. *bravo GOP*
Apparently you can't read. I said in the first line:

I still remember how Bill Gates lied in court.
Maybe that's why he hasn't had as much success as he'd hope for? 10 years is a pretty long time to be learning perl and php and not get anywhere...

That wasn't what the original poster said. I don't disagree with you. I disagree with the original statement that Google had to develop it for Apple.
Err, who said they had to *write* that?
They refused to allow Apple access that.
Big difference.
Funny how this is considered flame bait. Sad that we cannot have disagreements any more.

There's a reason why I bought a boxed copy of D3 - so that I don't have to give Blizzard my credit card #, which then pulls in my real information.
So, you can see why I might not be interested in giving them my phone number.
Apple pays its employees now?! Damn, I thought they just worked for the privilege of breathing in the air that Steve Jobs breathed out.

I support it simply for this:
He also seeks to stop Blizzard from requiring players to sign up for a Battle.net account.

The koolaid sure tastes good today, doesn't it?
