[Am-info] Global Resistance

[John Poltorak]

I am constantly at a loss to understand why the Anti-Globalistation/Capitalist
movement have failed to target Microsoft. They are, after all the the 
world's supreme capitalist. Totally dominant. Destroyer of competitors by 
fair means or foul. A global monopolist whose illegal position has just 
been sanctioned by the US govt whose responsibilty you would think would 
be to protect us from the worst excesses of capitalism. And yet Microsoft 
has once again shown that is bigger and more important than the govt. 

Why don't these protesters stop picking on Nike and Macdonalds? You do get 
a choice with trainers and burgers, after all. With computers, you pay for 
Microsoft whether you want it or not. Freedom of choice is supposed to be  
the hallmark of a so-called democratic, civilised society, yet the US govt  
is perfectly happy to deny consumers that right.

There must be some way to get this message across. The American 'Justice' 
system has been abysmal failure in this regard. Maybe on of these 'resistance' 
movements could provide a better path.

Does anyone know of any relevant Web sites?

Here's one I came across today:-
