Interesting MS Comments

The big mistake that government made is developing the Internet.  The rich 
and powerful, be it governments or corporations, rule the rest of the 
people through lack of information and misinformation.  The ubiquitous 
Internet, while it is still uncontrolled, gives the rest of us the ability 
to test the validity of the claims made by both governments and 
corporations.

Unfortunately, believing what we are told to believe has become 
commonplace.  Until the people listen to not only what they are being told 
but also what the truth is, freedom is in jeopardy.
