   If you don't want to "dance to the tune of the corporations" whatever   
   that means to the delusional, DON'T, just put together a device using   
   all your "magic" tech and save the world, why are sitting on your   
   hands waiting for a corporation to do it for you.   
      
   This isn't that complicted.
