Micro$oft SCAM

[ServerGenius]

Whoever updated his Micro$oft Media Player with the update
that would fix 3 security leaks in the player is seriously fucked
by Bill.

Micro$oft has added 3 lines to the Lisence agreement whitout
giving notice of it. So together with this update micro$oft now
has access to install encrypted updates to your machine without
giving you notice and far worse without giving you the option
to deny such "security" update.

Fuck ya'll wouldn't even notice that they update your machine.
Quite innocent you think? Ofcourse Micro$oft can also download
anything from your machine too.

Thank God I didn't ran that update...and I know I won't either.
This is seriously fucked up and it's about time somebody puts
a stop it.

Ok I just thought you all should know this.

disgusting.

Microsoft is shit, but for now we are stuck with it. I wonder if some serious operating system will ever compete with Windows and not Mac.

all of you complain about microsoft but you all use there products if you dont like it dont use a computer no other company can make a good operating system so you get what you get. If you can program an operating system go ahead and stop complaining. And your complaining about them auto updating security flaws on your computer never heard about that being bad there helping you out. So many people use windows you think out of the millions who use windows that you will be targeted for bill gates downloading junk off your harddrive could he even be bothered? i dont think so. So if you all hate microsoft so much dont use there shit goto linux and see how many problems they got you'll get rooted on a daily basis unless you know the ins and outs everything isnt spoon feed there! And who even wastes there time reading the agreement

[sweandy]

You are mister smart right? You got it all figured out. I´m going to
give a couple of examples maybe then you´ll grasp it.

Illegal Software....(licenses)
Illegal/Copied Media (MP3, MPEG, MPG, WMV)
Tracking your online behaviour. Where do you go online
how much do you spend online, What products do you buy.
What porn do you watch, etc, etc.

Got it?

And please do not rant about linux/unix if you haven´t got the
slightest idea of what you are talking about. It really makes you
look stupid.

ahem.

[poolie]

woah that sucks

[The Machine]

no more mp3's- can you imagine that? it would be so easy for M$ to install something that disallows playing unlicensed songs - i bet bill is sitting in his office right now, rubbing his hands in anticipation of the huge licensing fees the music industry will pay him. fuckers.

[ServerGenius]

Yep the battle has now really begun. Record companies are
dumping millions of fake MP3 files on peer to peer networks like
morphius, napster, kazaa. The files appear to be normal but after
downloading them they contain no music or a 30 second choir
singing some lameass song.

No need anymore to have users upgrade themselfes. Microsoft
can now do it remotely. For software licenses until now it was
only possible to check machines physically...this way they can
be checked remotely and the software can be destroyed on the
spot.

Not to mention if Microsoft can access it remote it will only take
days before any scriptkiddie can access the machines aswell.
and so on.....

well if you dont run the update then you have security flaw and your computer and random people can access your shit anyway you people worry to much get a firewall...

Anyone know a different media player with playlist support?
