The media is already moving on. Nothing will happen to Sony - maybe a few geeks will pretend not to buy their CDs anymore, but that's it. Consumers are not a player in this. It is coorporations and politicians and it is about power and money.
Not to mention people working in research/AI/etc? I wrote a system that does translation using statistical machine learning techniques in 1995, sounds like it could be similar to this system. I never got enough data to get decent results though:-)
yesterday, I went from 2.4.5 to 2.4.17, and never had so many problems. As soon as I started doing something, everything would start to segfault. I could not reboot because disk could not be unounted while errors flowed over the screen too fast to read. Off/On switch was the only thing that helped.

Hey, I wrote a system like that in 1993, 1994, but because of lack of data it was never very good. Bravo to him for making a better system though...
