Even if it weren't classified (which, I feel like "we're about to bomb a foreign country" is pretty need-to-know imo...) the fact that they are using a software platform that is not accredited and is not part of the governmental records keeping laws (and sounds like from what I've seen that their chat was set to auto-delete itself which would 100% be in violation).

This is ridiculous and anyone defending these people should be ashamed of themselves.

I think you misunderstand the reason for licenses; the safety of others is important. You do not have the right to do whatever you wish when it might endanger people; licenses are a way the government can verify safety precautions are enforced. Effective? Maybe, maybe not. It's not just to get a fee paid, however. Being upset over the fee is stupid, though.

Comment Re:HP is anti-consumer (Score 1) 45

I don't see a merger between a very large American company and a very large Chinese company would be allowed (also, the issue with China being what it is today, probably not the best for the company, either).

I don't buy from Lenovo for different reasons (the Chinese government is my main concern there) but them merging would definitely make me want to not buy from them in the future. At least right now HP as a company could potentially turn around their public image if they stopped being so anti-competitive and anti-consumer.
