I don't think anyone's ever complained about technology related articles. It's the stuff like TSA, Gay Marriage, and so on. The problem with these topics is they can't be debated rationally since their underlying issues are ones of judgment (In the case of the TSA the judgment is how much a person is willing to be violated for the possibility of being safer and in the case of Gay Marriage it's what level of equality people are entitled to). So these discussions will inevitably devolve into emotive bickering which is unproductive and adds a level of unpleasantness to the enviornment

I can't understand why anyone would downvote this comment. I can see how one could disagree with it. But it's clearly a good faith comment.

  How do you know it was downvoted?

    It probably initially went sub-1.

      Thanks, I hadn't thought of that. I have been getting the impression that some people can see comment points, I would like to see them back but I think it is safe to say it's no longer an experiment. :-/
