I've been to Moldova a couple of times and after watching the video I'd like to offer my take on it. Some parts are really on-point - especially the wall of thieves - and I understand it's hard to present an objective perspec

Maybe off-topic but it's really funny to read the mental gymnastics of John Gruber at Daringfireball. A week ago, the European Commission had something with Apple, now the US DOJ ...one might think that Apple really is doing something.
