CS:Source is like drugs for me. So it's not about liberty . Addicts don't need freedom so much.
But I do prefer Debian to Windows for my job, which I am not insane of so much.
I would let'em do anything they want to extirpate cheaters - those MFers ruined my day yesterday (two cheaters clans on my favorite CS:S server - that really sucked). And
I wide-eyed astonished at some cheaters who readily corrupt their gameplay (by removing textures etc.) just to be able to piss people off.
That is weird, isn't it?
Microsoft included Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) in Windows XP, replaced it with Windows Firewall in their SP2. And everybody got it for free.
The difference between firewall and antivirus software is huge, but you need them both to get that warm fuzzy feeling (according to XP Security Center). I wouldn't mind IDS and IPS to be in either...
As for forcing other competitors out of the antivirus market: isn't it what they (and their stalwarts) really want - to get the sole proprietorship of all software ever existed?
So I think they should be consistent with their principles and let their customers "get the latest security technologies that help them protect their PC against viruses, hackers, and worms."
