Copiers here. I put a note over the power point (covering the plugs) saying "Don't unplug this without our permission." They fllipped the note up and did it again. We then taped the thing down properly. Our next planned step was international picture language: disconnected cable and man with bat.
I wasn't just talking about Office, but option three sounds right. When they started with Office activation in 1999 or so, pirate copies of Office outnumbered Star Office. OGA was just a continuation of that plan.
We had people looking for the current policies for use of Google Docs/ Dropbox / other stuff for hosting of official records. They got a 'warm' reception.
At that point they still had real competition. Now, the number two in the market is ripped off copies of their stuff. Microsoft always competes and this is how they handle their biggest rival.
ASIO is internal only. You may have meant ASIS. The AFP are already doing the cyber-crime thing although some of their budget may have gone to the filter. DSD runs government IT security but they may get replaced by whatever the AusCERT replacement morphs into.
...except that no judge would allow that particular argument unless he was a complete tosser who had never worked in, around, or with a business in his life.
Oh yeah, I've been there. The mess of VBA is nowhere near as bad as the people who do everything in worksheet functions with no macros. I once found a nested matrix of IFs being used because someone hadn't heard of COUNTIF and SUMIF. Currently I'm trying to sort out an ugly timesheet and the only good thing is that they haven't embraced the power of circular refereences.
So save it as TXT and it asks you for the delimiter. CSV is comma separated values. If MS did it some other way they'd get slapped for being too stupid to recognize a comma.
So when Civ 6 comes out, how do I hand it down to family like I did with several copies of Civ 3 and 4? You may want to get off your own high horse because I've already upgraded to Gunships.

Maybe they're about to argue for privatizing the police and military.

Dear God, I don't want any of our programmers touching the office apps.
And use it to deploy packaged applications.

Hey, if they want to do porn, there's always Android.
I like my women like I like my coffee: ground up in an air-tight container.
Next year we'll try to get them to switch to metric and TCP/IP.
Yeah, but this is there for when you need that really custom Lego piece.

No, they're wrong. This isn't refusing to sell a product, but destroying the product after the paying customer has taken possession of it.
Baen might disagree but they're, unfortunately, a niche publisher.
Damn, I'm still on chapter 1.

Inconceivable.
We had one side of the continent running on, IIRC, 2Mbps at that time, probably less.
So you're telling me that 10BaseT Ethernet and its descendants are broadband then? There's a collision of two technical definitions there, I think.
It's way over my head.
He was in one of my favorite scenes of that show. Ride Forever, indeed.

Civ4 had DRM that stopped me handing the disk to a friend? Wow, I must have bought a broken one.
