Comment Why would anybody...? (Score 1) 257

Why would anybody install an app on their own phone that would prevent them from using it while driving, and why would someone ever pay for such a service?

Or are these app developers hoping to eventually have the government mandate the installation of their apps on every smart phone, whether or not their "customers" want it?

Comment Prudes, Puritans, and the American Taliban (Score 2, Insightful) 322

So the local Microsoft subsidiary or its PR firm didn't understand the parent company is based in the veritable Saudi Arabia of the western world, where even though the prudes, Puritans, and American Taliban have lost the culture war for the most part, they're still staunchly camped out in the business world, under the guise of "political correctness." Instead of invoking Bible verses its "insensitivity" or "sexual harassment" nowadays. New lipstick, same ol' pig.

Now if only they had shown a video of American fighter jets and bombers carpet-bombing civilians, squirting red, white, and blue smoke behind them, all set to "America, Fuck Yeah!", I'm sure it would've been met with raucous cheers and squeals of unmitigated glee from people on this side of the pond.
