Yeah, well, I would be willing to review what I wrote, however it got downvoted to the point where even I cannot read it anymore, it only says "[flagged]". That's also a large incentive to consider something else, if people h

Mmh valid point. OTOH, one is confronted by corporate interests all day long merely by existing, they're everywhere. I'm really not sure if I need to see any more of that to get their point.
