Because the rest can just use steganography and encryption as usual.

Yeah, I noticed after posting the comment that the summary was completely wrong.
But in my defence; how could I have known that a summary on Slashdot would be completely wrong?

$400 million.
Just to have the NFL officially use your brand of tablet.
No advertising seconds, no "official phone", "official supplier" or anything, just "official tablet".
Tens of thousands of times more money than the vast majority of us will ever have at one point.
For just one sports league.
Take a moment to think about that.

Unless ofcourse if sufficient businesses decide that it's cheaper as a whole to not have to deal with Yelp at all.
If you have few employees, spending time on Yelp and the likes is pretty expensive.

To be fair, if all of them end up near Vladivostock instead of just some random location, it's probably the map at fault.

The more expensive the better?

If you snail-mail a letter from one EU country to another EU country, are you also exporting that letter to the US?
Microsoft claims that uploading data to a European server is the same as exporting data to the US.
European laws may prohibit that re-interpretation, making it invalid.

Again; all that is meaningless if it contradicts local laws.
If Microsoft wants to sell to users in a country that has laws that Microsoft cannot obey, then it cannot sell regardless of any claims or notifications they make.

Make that "you can't store government data on any server from any company doing any kind of business within the US".

Just because they put something in a license, doesn't make it legal.
For instance, EULA's are meaningless in a number of European countries.
Also, contract do not trump law. So if there are laws that prohibit this, the contract (or atleast those specific terms) is invalid.

Just because the reasons are wrong doesn't mean the results would be wrong.

Remember BeOS and OS/2?

Him spending money on charity isn't evil.
The way he got all that money in the first place is evil.

This.

What is important is that historical event A caused historical event B, which lead to historical event C. Not whether event A happened in 1674, 1675 or 1676.

There's also the delivery company that could have switched them. I know for a fact not all delivery companies are to be trusted equally.
Or, if either Kosatec or POV uses a company to handle their warehousing, a third company.
