Did I miss it? I don’t think we had a discussion about Palladium/TCPA here. If you don’t know what it is, and even if you do, read this and tremble, the computer era we are living now will soon be over :hair: [http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/tcpa-faq-0.2.html](http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/tcpa-faq-0.2.html) ---

If that happens… I will convert to Macism. That is straight up evil to the core, to limit everything we can do with computers to nothing. I say… SCREW THAT! ---

Yeah, well, that’s the problem. You can’t really walk away from Microsoft ☹ Especially if they do buy Macromedia :hangover: We have to demonstrate in the streets, guys, I’m telling you. Otherwise WE are gonna get screwed by Billy. 😠 😠 ---

This is awful. If this happens they will get total control over your machine and whats on it. Advanced users won’t stand for this. The problem is noraml ppl will be to dumb to know. I will not suppport this in anyway. I will switch to waht ever i need to ilegal or not to get around big brother hardware and software like this. I just wont stand for it. ---
