For god's sake people, shut the fuck up, they're just companies selling
products. If you don't like the way corporations behave, focus on changing
laws to make them behave better, and in the meantime try to buy products from
"nicer" places.
If you don't like your Model T, suck it, because Ford's the only company making
them. You'd better wait 60-70 years if you want tons of true choice - only
then will this tech be commoditized and so cheap/easy that you can get it off
the shelves like toasters. The only problem will be if the companies are so
uncontrolled that they're colluding to keep competitors out.
Can we please go back to arguing ourselves silly and hating each other over
which brand of toaster we buy? I prefer toaster ovens, frankly - they're more
versatile. Who in their right fucking mind would buy such a limited product as
a regular toaster. Fucking morons.
Full stop!
