I wonder how many judges sitting on the bench at the SCOTUS are computer savvy enough to even grasp the details of what they will be deciding on?
Nearly everything electronic is running microcode these days. Are the products usable without the coded modules? Can they be purchased without it?
Yeah, it will make an interesting court case if the judges are up to snuff. Or not bought off like much of the government is these days by corporate America. It might become more of a political argument than a technical one. Corporate America can sell us goods and still retain ownership of those goods. And if they still retain ownership, can they not also charge us contract leases as long as they please?
