"Next up I better sue Samsung because their TV steals my electricity while I watch it too. "

Which shows you miss the point, since your samsung tv is eating electricity while YOU use it, and they're talking about the router eating electricity while someone else, some random person with a deal with comcast that your not involved in, uses it.

A better example is if when you bought your samsung and are in your house watching it, samsung puts another tv outside on your wall and plugs it in to let others watch it. Now if that blatant use of your paid-for resources doesn't bother you, then so be it, but alteast get the situation straight.

As for the amount, it doesn't matter the amount. It's theft, it's intentional, and it should be stopped.

Confirmation bias. You hang around someone intelligent people, you fail to recognize the rest of the country is bat-shit stupid.

Because the shitizens of the states have this entitled attitude that business are there to serve them, and if it's not to their liking they'll sue. Truly the founding father's couldn't care less if a company is squashing search results.

The people could just not use Baidu, knowing the results aren't as complete as a competitor might be, but no, the average american shitizen thinks that the company needs to conform to them. Mind you, these aren't cases of gross negligence, just people not liking how the company is doing their do.

The real fun part is finding out under what cause the shitizen will raise their case to Nanny Government. Will it be the ever bullshit "it's my constitutional right", or the ultimate heartstring puller "think of the children!"

They're in a sticky situation if they bend to the will of others. It means they have no principles to stand on. Chick-fila and Hobby Lobby are two companies that openly tell the "gay lobby" to pound sand, and they're both doing fine. They stand on their principles. And just how big do you think the "gay lobby" is? Sure, they're vocal, but they're not that big. And some gay people might switch browsers, but so what? Not everyone has to like them, and not every company is going to be openly embracing of everything that they're about. They'll get over it.
