So that the ignorant among us can understand learn, do you mind telling

History is littered with examples of real harm done to individuals and
society by "business as usual". Even when there is a substantial body
count, it can take decades for acknowledgement and restitution. I have
been there, done that too many times. IMO, a bunch of disgruntled geeks
moaning about software choices just does not have the leverage needed to
move a corporate mountain. However, should enough voices become an
irritation to said corporate mountain, retaliation could be
"interesting" . . .
As Bruce noted, Steve has every right to pursue any tactic he chooses
and I will be the first to congratulate him if he succeeds. In the
meantime, I choose to do real work to support alternatives rather than
tilt at windmills. :)
