I find this interesting that the DOJ went and told Microsoft, "Bad,
bad!" and now is forcing people to use the very software they said was a
monopoly. They're giving this guy a monitoring system that runs on his
PC in software... what's the point of the monitoring software at all?
What's even worse is that they are requiring that the man purchase a
license for Windows so that he can use their monitoring software. Does
this make any sense to anyone else, because the sanity of it evades me.
I would rather rot in jail than be forced to enter into an agreement
which I do not agree to, that's for sure.
