Because iTards can't conceive of using non-Apple-provided "solutions" for anything, nor can they imagine others doing it.

For example, I'm in the IT security field, and a CISSP does carry a good bit of weight.

I've also worked in virtualization, and have a VCP5 certification...I can tell you it might or might not mean something to a prospective employer, but I can damned sure tell when I'm talking about the workings of a particular client's virtual infrastructure whether their people are VCPs.

OMFG, BWHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Sad, but true.

I'm just waiting.

The idiotic opiates are only going to keep the horde distracted for so long. We'll eventually reach some titration point and the simmering pot will boil over violently.

The "whoosh" remark was onomatopoeia.

It was the sound of the previous author's sarcasm, to which you had replied, sailing above your understanding.

Our government blatantly abusing and/or misconstruing legislative intent for vendettas or other malicious purposes? No way!!!

You're missing his point entirely, as well as displaying a fundamental lack of understanding as to what constitutes a right.

Rights are inherent to people, irrespective of what geographic location they may be born or reside in. They exist innately within the person. It's a simple concept, yet one that many statists have a difficult time comprehending.

Perhaps what you meant to say is that "those are not rights respected or protected by the government of Canada." Nevertheless, they are rights.

Who else is shocked? Anyone? Bueller?

You're dead-on, in principle.

The time for Obama to have voiced this firm position was back during Genachowski's charimanship when Verizon sued the FCC for his attempt to implement NN rules, and the courts essentially said that absent Title II CC classification, NN would not be possible.

Today's weaksauce announcement is four years too late and a Congressional majority short to be anything other than political theatrics.

Anyone who buys into Obama's sudden lame-duck, no Congressional majority in either chamber announcement of a decisive position in favor of Net Neutrality as genuine is a blind fool.

...I can hardly believe how much has changed since then!

It's almost as though we're part of some political theater that's designed to give the impression of distinct choices while actually maintaining the status quo nearly entirely.

Yes, I'm aware the pedantically technical answer is "no," so save it, nerds.

That wasn't the point being expressed in the quote.

Sure thing, AC...we'll get right on doing that needful for you.
