Thank you for explaining it. I haven't been in the *nix world for years, keep thinking I'll get back into it.

I mean just watch that video of Eric Schmidt of Google that came out last year. It's pretty shocking how bold they are in their willingness to break laws and social norms for money.

Yea, this kind of blows me away. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but 3-4 processes each eating away that much memory? Just to deal with the network stuff? Holy fuck.

They have similarly aligned goals, especially right now.

Nah, they're a megacorp, you gotta hurt them where it counts - in their bottom line. Make them use their super expensive lawyers to defend this shit. Honestly more people/entities should do this. Even pro se, these corporate lawyers cost these companies literally hundreds of thousands of dollars to go into court. Just imagine how much you could cost them if everyone started suing them for any little thing. Even a response to a lawsuit requires a lawyer, which requires time and effort.

Its literally the only thing they care about - money. Strongly worded letters and protests aren't enough. They can ignore those.
