The high-cost filter being sold on Ebay and through email Spam to bypass Pay-Per-View (PPV) digital cable systems is a readily available filter that only temporarily blocks the PPV charges. Users are getting shocked when the cable company then bills the cable user for all of the ordered PPV."

I guess the main difference is that programmers do not have to send back any changes made to the source code. But they can't combine any of the Microsoft code with other software. Here's the [1]full text of their new license agreement." The article claims that Microsoft is "inching closer  at least in spirit  to the GNU GPL" with these license tweaks, but it doesn't look that way to me.

[1]Sandia National Labs has [2] developed small copper 'wicks' to transport methanolÂand waste heatÂfrom one area of a computer to another, where it can be dispersed more efficiently, comfortably and compactly than with heat sinks. The technology is being licensed to an undisclosed startup." So this stuff ([3]mentioned here previously) might soon make it to a lap near you.
