And if you dont think a ruling like this doesn't matter to everyone in this country that has a job, you need to get out of your mothers basement more often.
( of course/. no longer advertises either.. but i guess you missed that. )
And what the hell is up with this posting time limit, for people logged in?
To start with Hobby lobby was NOT against contraceptives, and offered it to their employees. They were against 'after the fact' options. Like "plan B".
Avoiding the truth was a plan to harass and go after them using media bias, much like Chick-fil-A was attacked.
1 - Most of what i saw was not free. 2 - Why should my want of 'freeness' supersede the poor sap that buys my used books? Books that now have a reduced value. ( both due to it being tied to me, and that i have defaced a piece of literature )
Assuming no other copy of 'your' book exists, its not piracy, any more than the library is.
Now, perhaps if you cant guarantee there are no other copies, i suppose they could say something, but that should be on the seller to be complaint, not this company.
Get an unlocked phone that has a sim socket.. Buy prepay sim cards off the shelf.. at anything from a drugstore, grocery to a kiosk at the mall. I have even seen them at gas stations lately..
All done. ( for the US anyway, i assume Canada has stores that sell them too )
And if you want to be really fancy, get one of those multi-band dual socket china phones. ( i have one, it can do both at&T/t-mobile style GSM and Verizon CDMA.... *at the same time* even... )
As a matter of fact, for the last 15+ years we have been offshoring much of our high tech manufacturing -
its not due to us not being able to, its due to economics. Due to a lot of factors, its simply cheaper to have it manufactured elsewhere now. We used to do it here.
Also, who is designing the stuff that we are having off-shore companies build for us? Hint: we are. Thus the technical know-how isn't gone, nor is the knowledge.
And sure, to get back into the manufacturing business would take a lot of capital overhead, and time to get it built and ramp up, but we could if we needed to.
And you honestly think other nations are not doing the same thing? Home grown chips like this will just let them embed their spy tech into them is all, under the guise of 'nationalism'.

Now i feel old. I was there in the beginning.
"stuff that matters"

The earth as a whole does a great job at 'processing' things.
Adapt, or die out.

That is one way to stop them i guess.. Then the content wont matter, just the act of engaging is enough to get you labeled.
( and bandwidth caps.. )
Thanks for the only serious answer i got, to a serious question.
Why cant they just host this on their own? its not like they cant get nearly unlimited funding..
The fee will rise to the point they go out of business.
The beginning of the end for streaming services.
They are *earphones* for pete's sake. How about you make the sound better? You know, the reason people buy them, to listen to stuff...
Sucks.. Cloud as an additional option, ok.
So i assume that this new 'version' will be geared towards the home market and not professional. That seems to be the trend for apple.

"Following the rules"
People aren't evil.
Sure they are. But this has nothing to with DRM or free books. its just nature, and we ARE evil to the core.
So, i have to physically damage my book by writing in it, and it will prevent the next guy down the line from ever participating in such a scheme.
Comprehension issues? "ANYTHING THAT FLIES" is the goal.
If you were in city of any size in America and didnt see one for sale you need to leave now as you are too stupid to be here.
At least down here in the states all you have to do is OPEN YOUR EYES. they are everywhere.

You know that is what they want, might as well just do it now and get over with.
Is that it admits when its wrong. Religion, not so much.
