Had to laugh the other day when I saw some mainstream journalists claiming that this sort of thing might have "unintended" consequences for free and open source software. Yeah fucking right, "unattended" my ass.

I'm past the point of believing governments have my best interests at heart; I think that particular facade finally melted away for good when mine was working with Hollywood to sneak malware into the digital TV spec that would have allowed OTA TV stations to arbitrarily stop you from recording them.
