Why do you think that companies need to be allowed to do things the public strongly opposes, in order to provide things we actually do want?

I think that because the public does not really care about monopolies, invasion of privacy, etc, that companies can get away with what they do. Most people I know don't know the first thing about Microsoft's business practices, RIAA lawsuits, or even what RIAA means. Pretty much everyone from around here would rather watch fear factor or nascar than hear about Microsoft.
