OK so denying people freedom with their own data and hardware, or  
enforcing DRM on people's legitimate media is not acting to "disrupt  
communications"?

Oh sorry I must have gotten them all wrong... damn me...

Wake up - Microsoft are trying to take control of people's data and  
computers out of their own hands. That cannot be allowed to happen.  
At the end of the day you have a given right to do what the hell you  
want with your property. They, and anyone else that subscribes to  
their little game, are outside their moral standing as a software and  
service *provider*. You are allowed to have rules, you are not  
allowed to invent your own law.
