    Let's not be naïve... If he had a source, they would have to act on it, close everything down, and else. Then the phone price would rise to $400 and the factory would close as well, and all the supply chain would suffer. I guess they j

    This is a nice effort, however, don't politicians actually want voting systems to be really messy? If so, they could shift the balance towards what they want at will. USA has one of the worst voting systems in the world, however, it ke

    I have the feeling that one should be able to copy and use my material at will. At the end of the day, will he/she be able to deliver on those promisses? He/She has already copy-paste things around, fact is he/she is a total
