| :wtf: :confused: Once again, America f*cks over another one of her citizens. This proves that capitalism and greed reign supreme over morals and humanity in our heartless society. |

| Everyone should just use open source products such as a OS like Linux ....and bring WINBLOWS DOWN...problem with this is that linux is not user freindly and requires a bit more comp knowlege that the avg person......well doesnt have...least its a good idea....im glad im running linux ;) |

i also heard that online sites might require users to have Palladium on their computer inorder to purchase stuff, check accounts, manage accounts...for security.... software companies will then require that you have it...so basically, if you don't have it, you're screwed!
I'll never put such a thing on my computer....i'd rather risk getting a trojan on my computer than put up with this...
what do you think? |

Palladium is basically a LEGAL, HARD/SOFTWARE trojan that can't be escaped unless you build ur own PC with parts that don't have Palladium and only use open source OS and software, like Linux. It's a shame that this is happening to our society. Well, I guess that's why Linux is becoming easier and easier every year. By the time Palladium takes full swing, a Linux distribution that's as easy as or ever easier than Windows will be available. After all, the latest Red Hat & Mandrake's KDE desktops function VERY similar to Windows... |

I think that they make even MORE than that! Why are they THIS greedy? I wonder how many movies come out every year. If u think about this and multiply it by 4 000 000 000, you'll see how much money they make. What do they do with that money??? |
