And you would think Microsoft who's already been slapped once by the people that they would learn from that lesson but clearly they need a colorful reminder from us the people that at the end of the day without us buying their products they are a worthless shell of cement and servers..

I see it quite simply either self police your own industry behaviors and self-regulate or eventually you will become regulated by the public in due time.

and you won't like it when the government does it.

If I was Microsoft I would be on my best behavior

People use the excuse that they want to put food on their table. Everyone has that excuse.

It's not a valid one to harm others..

This leads to a slippery slope to no responsibility...

I see a severe deficit in ethics and morals in the world of self-taught software engineering at a much higher rate than any other physical engineering field..

I look at it quite pragmatically.

To being engineer is to take full responsibility of the things you create..

If you're not willing to do this and take this responsibility then you do not deserve to be called the title of engineer..

When I spent 8 years in college I knew that with great power and a title comes an extremely heavy responsibility..

and I knew that mantle of responsibility when I got into the industry of engineering and Technology

Does not have direct responsibility to the public..

The No was not picked up on voice typing

I think software engineering should be a regulated profession the same that electrical engineering and mechanical engineering is. There's too much to go wrong and too much real life active ongoing harm to users and the public to not drop the hammer..

Enough is enough..

There are days like this when I just want to be smothered by a large Fox..

I have to be stuck in one the rest of my life.. I think an able-bodied person will have no problem wearing that for their job.

Heroes are earned...
