Microsoft's metered pay-as-you-go patent. It's Trusted Computing Mark Two but
worse
,----[ Quote ]
| All your data are us, and now your hardware too
|
| If you thought that details of trusted computing were grim the patent to
| impose a charging structure on a PC’s hardware relative to software usage
| would tax the greatest genius of Jesuitical causitry. If you were impressed
| by the talents of now defunct investment bankers to leverage profit from
| packaged sub prime pyramid schemes then Microsoft’s wheeze would earn them a
| place on the board of Lehman Brothers.

| This NAC/NAP lovefest would be laughable if it weren't such
| a kick-in-the-teeth to the rest of the industry, enterprise IT, and
| all Internet users. A Cisco/Microsoft oligopoly stalls implementation,
| stifles innovation, and makes the network less secure. In this way, Cisco
| and Microsoft are standing in the way of progress.
