1. Superior customer service/satisfaction
2. Lowest possible overhead/marketplace prices
3. Technological/industry leading features
These are successful tenents of an online business and OSS makes these possible. Especially #2 - how can you have lowest possible overhead for a business when you pay thousands in license fees yearly to MS?
Or the constant reboots of servers/desktops that waste productivity time in the workplace. MS just doesn't make sense.
"Morally" was perhaps the wrong choice of words;
I should restate that to read: "Disrupting the flow of Republican non-sense into our media pool is morally fine with me."
The means that they are taking to do so is not fine with me. I do not condone or approve of hacking anyone's website.
Hacking the republican website: morally fine with me, legally not so much.
At least they aren't SPAMMERS: I had to halt service at our free email server http://friscomail.org because of a Nigerian Scammer/Spammer. (Help me stop this guy - all the info is on the front page.)
Personally I'd rather see the authorities go after these type of people instead of the blackhats mentioned in this article.
Honestly though, is shutting down the Rep. site really going to do much other than cause inconvenience? It's the DieBold machines that need to be "taken care of"...
