Yes, absolutely hilarious coming from Fuddie, a shill for Microsoft, one
of the world's most immoral corporations.

Running a /legal/ gambling operation doesn't really compare to, say,
sabotaging a charity [1], blackmailing OEMs [2][3], bribing and smearing
ISO delegates [4][5], bribing Nigerian education suppliers to wipe
Mandriva from children's laptops [6], advertising products by glorifying
violence and under-age sex [7][8], engaging in false and deceptive
advertising [9][10], and running a global software racketeering
operation, does it?
