    for the normal joe now, this maybe true, was just a short time ago that everyone was happy with 56k dial-up! as for current real-world applications, most of them i think would be on the local network. things like booting a network OS, over-the-wireless OS installs, mass file distributions, large OS updates, re-imaging desktops, etc.

    Well, because free speech is good for business, stifling personal freedoms is bad for business. I don't see why personal freedoms has to be at odds with good business opportunities.

    From the definition at wikipedia (i know, their souces suck):
    "Capitalism is an economic system in which the means of production are privately owned and operated for a private profit; decisions regarding supply, demand, price, distribution, and investments are made by private actors in the free market; profit is sent to owners who invest in businesses, and wages are paid to workers employed by businesses and companies."

    In no part of that is there a clause for for taking away personal freedoms or being greedy. I have worked with a lot of companies and most have not been out to get anyone, they usually do business with a sense of do no harm. But like individuals, there are sociapathic companies that have no sense of morality, and give the rest of capitalists a bad name.

    I would disagree, this sounds more pro-capital. An employer who has nothing better to do than browse facebook sounds like a recipe for disaster business-wise.
