IMHO, one of.Net's main purpose of existence is to kill Java. M$ will do what it takes to kill it. So, I do not see M$ killing any Open Source.Net implementations as long as Java lives and rules. If and when M$ manages to make Java irrelevant, is when I want to know where M$ will take.Net and its patents.
"but the Indian government does not allow American workers to work in India" Are you sure you have your facts straight? http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=780 91&cid=6932 659
My cousin, a British citizen, is currently working in India. So I know for a fact that the Indian government has proper laws in place to have employees of foreign origin. Contract or otherwise.

What is probably true is that the Indian consulting co.s are refusing to hire Americans, and are interview Americans just to comply to EOE.
So now, Britney Spears can control us and we won't even know? Or the US govt. simply thru FM? Or how about some crazy virus writer who decides to put this on every PC?

And when you let them use the VPN, how do you ensure that the PC on the other side is not infected?
