QTE: Proper marketing information helps *all parties involved*. Unfortunately so many people have a deluded sense of grandure and think "omg they're watching *me*" like there's someone with a telescope watching and giggling everytime you fart. No company has that much time! It's usually done statistically. /ENDQTE You would be correct most of the time. The problem comes in when some asshat decides to abuse the system. Everyone here knows from personal experience in dealing with Corp America, that they can and will screw you, then hammer you with 100s of lawyers if you decide to take them to court. um.. anyone here ever hear of the MPAA? or maybe the RIAA? Enron? MCI/Worldcom? MICROSOFT???? Its not about fair play, its about what can be gotten away with and until that changes, I'll be against big brother crap like this. Its not the intended use thats the issue, its the practical application in a world where its much cheaper to apologize and pay the token fine, than to ask permission first. Optimism has its place, just not in American Law or American Corp Culture. Unless, you just like to be proven wrong...a lot...
