From the evil oil empires to Dow       Chemicals to rubber plantation slave owners.              Logging on to the internet makes people money              By using a Mac you are supporting Pixar, Disney, and Apple, and Chinese       subcontractors              Have you flushed your toilet today?              How many clothes do you own which were made in China?              My point is that Zuckerman is relatively harmless and if the little shit       makes money, power to him. Last month was the first month where social       networking accounted for more internet trafficking than porn. Most of that       was on Facebook. Who cares? Is somebody going to take that picture from my       wedding and make a jillion dollars on it? Cool. Wish I'd thought of it.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
