Hardware - Canonical should get into making their own hardware. Open hardware with unlocked bootloaders on which you could install ubuntu, ff os, android and if ms releases images then winrt as well. Plus, they could make money this way. Th

We continue trying to find ways to create new outlaws. 6 strikes came into effect and nobody is bothered. The govt does not represent the people. What is said is not meant. We live and are expected to live chasing things we don't want and a

So it is a bit hypocritical of MS talking about ads in gmail. But again where those ads contextual?

I don't remember if hotmail used to run ads.

Sadly youtube is now entrenched. Everybody else is a fringe player.

Whatever happened to freedom of speech. This is exactly what autocrats everywhere want and even we now believe it to be good - just because of youtube comments. Comments which reflect the real us. With a real name policy it will be replaced

Individual goals will vary. GP's points still hold. Some people want to start a business so that they can positively change the world. Many people who work for corporations and the govt may have similar aims in life. After all, this may be

i can understand why people hate walled gardens. An open sw/hw system would have meant growth opportunities for more people and companies rather than just apple. We have a little bit more open system with android but with all the locked boo

I don't understand the open source hate. Whether the code is open source or not makes a lot of difference. Not hating on google, but mozilla has this one right.

How is dumbing down the world better than teaching best practices to people who will shape the future? 20 years earlier, wouldn't you have expected an office secretary to not send postal mail to everyone in the city? Or give the cabinet k

government run colleges better and cheaper than private run money-machines? That is a system working as expected.

you are right. Assuming corruption is unnecessary here, as business interests fairly explain their behaviour.

profit and social responsibility don't go together. Google has every reason to be interested in a locked-down web. That way it could be sure of all the revenue that youtube movie premieres would bring. Sadly, a more responsible way of doing

the bbc is not one person. While i am proud of many of the things that bbc has created, this is an instance of the wrong people using bbc to further their interests. Commercial interests will be expected to have a say, but shouldn't be the

if bbc is a big enough customer for such content ( and i believe the bbc is), it can dictate terms when buying such content. If it is not doing so, we can only assume corruption and collusion as reasons.

as a corporation running on public money, i expect the bbc to keep public interest in mind. Drm only hinders the paying public. I will have to pay for a windows license if i intend to view content i have already paid for, so that bbc can ke

Shame on you BBC. Technology cannot prevent IP theft. You can outlaw it and hope fear will stop people from sharing. Or else you can find better ways to monetize your IP. BBC should be working on putting that license money to better use. Ou

It is not strengthening Linux based operating systems that they have to worry about. It is the obsolesence of office in the hands of better cross platform suites that can be a bigger problem.
