    I am sure it is still true for business, and they just put it on the books as something they pay for and do not think twice about it. As the rich keep getting richer because of this little buy line in so many companies books I hope more of your US companies do it. I have no idea how they do it here in Canada but I am sure they have something, wish the world would realize what the French police did when they disliked Windows XP and created a Linux distro for themselves instead of suffering.

        I really want governments and businesses in Canada to go FOSS rather than paying big US tech money to harvest our data.
