Yes I can.
Fuck these people. Damn dirty, no-good rotten, greedy, lifeless, soulless, talentless hack job bastards.
Even the Wallstreet/Banker CEO pricks must stand in awe and wonder on how this bunch of pricks can make an extra dollar.
Same for me actually.
You have to options: slap some reality into your users and put them in their place, or burn out. Your choice.

I fail to see the downside. Games + Strippers?
water is wet!
Of course they cheat. They have to. If they don't know how to cheat then how can they catch the students when they cheat so they can cheat better and better so they can cheat into a job where others learn to cheat from them!
You are right. A group of people trained properly is about the only way to do this. Thing is to really be effective they would have to operate with little to no oversight. Essentially a black-ops for a cyber war.
That idea makes me squirm. Bad enough so many groups try this already with current laws, I wouldn't want to give that much power to a unmanaged group of people. If you want effective though, that's the way. A Czar is a waste of time really.
Sorry, I don't think something like that is necessary in this case.
If you go to Boxee's site, then click download, you are given VERY clear instructions on what needs to be done.
The poster's "I've been trying to find it for ages" translates as "I'm too lazy to even bother going to the site". Seriously.
If someone is interested in an application (particularly an app that's still in alpha), the first thing they should do is visit their website.
Microsoft has catered to the lazy user. Hell they take pride in it. If Linux is to get a meaningful share of desktop/netbook computers we must cater to lazy.
Earlier we was all freaked about a guy wanting to make a UAV for pictures and now we need to code the 3 laws in the Linux Kernel?
I just cant keep up with this place, I swear....
They would of course have a very small amount in the drink. Not enough to break laws, but enough to make people go "Lets get this! It's cocaine!" if it would ever be discovered. Marketing at its best folks.
It kinda does get to the point when we talk about Microsoft's business practices, that any person (even myself) could hand the United States Supreme Court a PC with this on it, say "WHAT THE #*%& MAN!" and have a compelling and winning legal argument.
With the press talking about people who want to harm the U.S. using Facebook, Twitter, various IM systems etc, it almost makes sense to turn off one such avenue of abuse. It may be a "lead by example" thing... or a software bug.
Its Microsoft. If it turns out to be a good thing, "feature". "Bad" its a software bug. "Really bad" and its a "zero day exploit" they knew about for "6 months."
There is a video on youtube of someone doing it. It ran, laggy but you could grind in the world a bit or just check on things if needed in game.
