WRONG! Surely most poeple and comanies WANT to "violate" (even more such a bought law like the) DMCA. But they CAN'T, because they don't have the power to enforce it (by modifying those "laws").
> the OP claimed that Office has more UI designers than OO.o has *developers*
doesn't this mean that the OO.o-developers are much better because they still can bring out a comparable software? (i don't like the word "product". it's like "human resources": "hey, those human resources are exthausted. i had to throw them to the trash. can i have some more of this new human resource product?")
I worked with poeple from sony music and bmg in my last job, and you can believe me: the guy from sony told me himself that they were nearly dying. My colleague who was in the room was pretty shocked when he heard the details. This was 3 years ago.
It was not only sony music. It was their whole electronics sector that struggled... so pretty much everything...
So i don't know all of today's facts, but facing the single fact of their fusion i don't believe that this was not an action to save their asses.;)
BTW: I live only a mile from the Bertelsmann headquarters and worked for them. I still have pretty much access to their internal phone books.;) (But who cares. I've more important stuff to do than prank calls or throwing foul eggs at them... [like reading slashdot for just one example.;])
Yes. you're right. They blame it on the computer instead of the os, because they can't tell where teh border line between those two parts is. And that is - i guess - because they really never saw another os. (or it was that disguised to look similar to windows ["to make it easyer for newbies"] that they did not even realize it...)
Well...if you don't know it yet: Sony is DYING! They are struggling on the border of death for years now... and it ain't got any better... So you don't need a *that* big thing to bring sony to fall...
Let's all wish it happens... some time it has to start to become better for us...
> Because not doing so makes their customers discontent and angry?

Well, how hard is it to create such a system, if you can steal^Wadopt a huge top-quality codebase (OSS) and *additionally* throw kilotons of coders on it to make it better, while you don't give anything back?
Really... it's not *that* impossible for microsoft to realize that.

Already some years ago I read that some aficans born in those areas with high aids distribution were born with a natural mutation making them immune to aids. Several laboratorys tried to extract a medicament out of it.

I just hope america can in some time far away really become that country that you once were so proud of and that most of the time was just an illusion...
Shouldn't they first put pressure on those repressive companies for being such economic feudalists, before going after other countries where they don't even have the right to intervene? I mean what is the reason for a distinct country: You can have your own rules, and as long as you don't do shit OUTSIDE your country, nobody can forbid you anything!
Now in this case companies from foreign states come with their own point of view from their own country and want to impose it on some foreign country just because they went there to play with them. Guess what: If you don't like the rules of another country, then DON'T GO THERE and leave them alone. It's SOLELY THEIR decision how those rules are and if they like to change it. Poeple that don't like the rules of a country are free to found their own. (If they aren't then okay, you can help them to get out if you like to. But you are still not allowed to force this country to do anything. least of all if you have a that crappy government yourself.)
I hope you really meant this was funny... because else this is extremistic fucker's bullshit! To me it was NOT funny, because you simply are not in the position to decide who's good and who's bad! Your own "ethics" are making your country the center of all badmanistans for most countries of the world.
And even if you were not that way... you still don't have the right to decide what another country is allowed to do in things of what their poeple want to use for rules and laws.
Because this is the reason to have a separate country in the first place: You're separating yourself from other groups to be able to have distinct rules for living together.
But.. i know the usa thinks that the world is a state of the usa.... you simply don't understand that there could be groups on the planet with such completely different philosophies.
And in case of a government that's mistreating their poeple: Well, that's a thing of this government versus this poeple, and you have NOTHING to do with it! NOTHING! If this governement or poeple come to you to mistreat you, this is another thing. Then you try to force them from going back to their country and leaving you alone. But NOTHING MORE!
I recommend first looking at your own government and fixing it, and then talking about extern affairs. For again becoming the country that you one were so proud of... (I guess then even other states would stop hating you...)
> If people want to buy CDs that installs spyware on their computer and allows the company to go in and delete that person's files, what business is it of mine?
The problem here is: They neither want it, nor do they know about it!
It's just a big corporate fraud and abuse!
But what do you expect in a economic feudalism?
As long as they have that power and we just are a bunch of single poeple, this ain't gonna change!
So what can we do? We need to organize ourselves so we can create our own powerful organization! (And then beat the living crap out of them!;)
Any suggestions how we could reach this goal? Remember: Never underestimate the power of stupid poeple in large groups! Just learn to guide them in your way instead of the company's one and fight them with their own [obviously successful] weapons.
And finally - to make em a favour - try to 1. makine up your own law, that WSMG (weapons of stupid mass guidance) are forbidden. 2. use your own WSMG to push the law into the lawbooks. 3. put them in jail!
This worked fine in the past. Just look at The Iraq-War. (And in this case they even *really* have WSMG!)

But then you would have to wait some weeks until you could listen to the next hour of music, because most radios and other sources would return quietness for most of their time.;)

You forgot some very important things:
1. that "government" is not OUR or YOUR government!
2. it's also not the government of the poeple of the country.
3. that "government" is a department formed by big companies (mostly from the oil an "healtcare" [dirty lie] sectors)
4. so that "government" works on the same rule: profit maximization, as long as possible.
5. if you're the government *everything* is possible, as long as you stay in that position
6. to stay in that position you need to persuade the poeple that you are allowed to
7. this works great if the poeple are stupid
8. to make poeple stupid you just take the money for education and put it elsewhere
9. additionally you can make the "products" and everything easyer and easyer so poeple can be more and more stupid and still be able to exist...
well... what's missing...? of course:
