Actually the devil is selling you a license for his patent on buying souls. It is very expensive and so far only bill gates has one.
What I find funny is that when millions of people download mp3s they (the industry) can track down the individuals and cease and desist them to a pulp.. when 50 or so jack-asses spam the universe and your mom, nobody seems to be able to stop them. Furthermore, people have been screaming blue murder about the lack of security features in Windows and little happens, then, when worms are rampant, spam is no longer limited to 50 individuals but lives in a worm vector all of it's own, the industry wants to shove some expensive, safe, ridiculous solution down your throat for a problem THEY created through either their own nonchalance or ineptitude.
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO PRODUCT LIABILITY?
Yeah, closed source companies always moan about how they can offer guarantees that GPL software cannot... GUARANTEE THIS lamos!!
Yeah, you get my drift... the whole worm issue, spam and all included are in my opinion the most coercive form of marketing ever used. bill has a license from the devil and is going to shove trusted crap and dicko-encrypto mail right down YOUR throat and charge you for it up the gazoo...
Well mr Bill "hell's" Gates, read my lips: All you bases are now ours!
Thats right, server's are predominatly running OSS or *nix flavours, routers, switches, pabx', embedded devices, portables, and laptops have OSS as fastest growing development and the desktop is under fierce attack with Linux taking the point deep into enem(a)y territory! Why heck even cell phones and carrier grade systems are being ported to some form or other of OSS.
If anything, this whole sender-id initiative will bolster the will of OSS org's and devvers and drive a mass consolidation attempt the likes of which will rival the kernel development team's rally around Linus. That's right, you hear me loud and clear, the solution to mail will come from OSS and it's devver will hit the hall of fame in the same manners as that penguin lover whose code comments make us piss our pants laughing....
