- Comment on “Extreme” Broadcom-proposed price hike would up VMware costs 1,050%, AT&T says 2 days ago:
Well no. VMware had a monopoly but now they have successfully pushed everyone to other software. Not everyone is using the same alternative so the market is more diverse.

I don’t really see a problem with it. It painful short term but has the benefit of breaking up centralization and single points of failure.

Broadcom is not playing the long game. They will milk VMware and then dump it or dissolve the company.
Funny enough Broadcom is not doing so well right now (check there stock)

I wonder if they could get backing from AI companies. Think about it, they do similar things so maybe it would be worth Microsoft sending a few million to help

Did you real the summary of the lawsuit? They were giving away unlicensed books. That is what started this thing to begin with. If they would of just not started offering free downloads of copyrighted works this would probably not be happening.
They really should of just admitted to there mistake during covid and settled. For once the lawsuits by the publishers wasn’t totally unjustified and extreme. Now I stead of that they are risking everything over there own views on copyright.
I can’t help but feel they have brought this on themselves. They had the support of the US copyright office and everything but now that’s in jeopardy

Windows is spyware but it isn’t actively malicious to my knowledge. It doesn’t compromise other devices on your network for lateral movement
