Unfortunately, Intel has become some kind of a mystical entity, which must be defended from its detractors.
Unfortunately, to you, Intel has become some kind of a mystical entity, which must be demonized by its detractors.
BTW, bringing up Galileo was a good point. That was going to be my next topic.
Galileo capitulated to the demands of the Church, because the cost of fighting it was too high. Intel certainly didn't capitulate to the extent Galileo did but there's still some similarity. Like you, FPG, the JFTC, the KFTC, the US FTC and the EUC, the Church wasn't interested in the truth, only perpetuating their view or the world, and their power. A toothless, symbolic victory was enough to satisfy them. The NYAG?, well lets just say a slinking away in disgrace was the best option for them, so they jumped at the chance.
Unfortunately for you guys, unlike Galileo, Intel isn't subject to house arrest. |
