Of course. My apologies for the "attitude" comment, it was uncalled for.
But... in "getting real..." please speak and act for *yourself*, and while
doing so, don't criticize others who wish to pragmatically try to do the
best within what the rule-of-law allows.

When someone talks about a government which takes away your freedom of
speech and says it is illegal to even blog about a software which might
potentially be used against copy protection, it makes be proud to be an
American, despite all of our problems. I will be the first to admit that
the American government is evil and corrupt, but atleast we still have some
basic human rights here like freedom of speech.
