The same way companies have been made to commit not to kill dolphins,

You could also, like the Luddites, pressure the inventors of computers
not to make any more of these new-fangled, fearsome things. Because

signature about my address:
I don't any express any "official" opinions from Microsoft; I just like
to argue on cypherpunks.)
