Lets fud back!
.. how?? and at what cost?
"an eye for an eye" actually means, "if you take an eye, yours will be taken". most people sadly fail to understand that and use it as justification for action that results in escalating retaliation and ultimately wars.
i believe that a better strategy is to make products that people who know their shit will want to buy. thanks to people now *knowing* that there are spying back-door co-processors in the computers that they're buying, they *will* jump at the opportunity to buy ones that are sold as being "without spying backdoors" if they're available...
... but if you're running lying deceptive underhanded smear-tactics campaigns there's actually a good chance that those people will look at your products and go "wtf?? i can't trust these people *either*, they're liars as well!!!"
