Don't bother, the people who you are going to sell this product to have never heard of the GNU utility and they do not care the least about it. You'll be just fine.

Is the GNU screen utility trademarked? In what capacity?

The HN crowd is not a representative sample of the market. People here on HN will hate for a day or two, then they will turn their anger and cynicism to another cause, therefore that name will stop being a source of confusion :) Seriously,

You have it the wrong way round, it's a benefit that it makes it more accessible. Abled people benefit from a system where their browser considers that div as "table-like" in the way content flows through it. Likewise, disabl

Try talking Grandma over the phone to help her share her photo directory with Aunt Jeanine, on the same PC. No command line allowed, and you know she can only focus on that type of task for 4, maybe 5 minutes top.

Please read my comment again. One like from your personal Twitter account on a nazi post or conspiracy theory meme means nothing. 90% likes on such content categories from your personal account? That means a lot about you.

Banning ${outdoors smoking} only stops the honest people, but wait no actually it also helps basically everyone around them keep their lungs clean. Same result for speeding, drinking, drugs, gambling, littering, and so on so forth.
