Biblical
"Preparing for the wrath to come" when it
gets in the hands of the public.
Most likely they will tread lightly with
their activation crap until the sheeple fall
for the trap, hook, line, and sinker, and
meanwhile feed them just enough DRM to keep
them coming back for more. Then, when the
hook is set, WATCH OUT!
Will the sheep keep feeding on the expensive
Microcrap, or will they be jumping the fence
for the free grass?
Only time will tell.
