Am I the only one here who believe all this "good vs evil" way of
thinking is counter-productive?  From Snuffelluffogus "corporations
are evil" to Bush's "axis of evil".  IBM is "good" when they donate
XFS to Linux, and "evil" when they lobby for software patents.  Saddam
is "good" when he attacks Iran, and "evil" when he attacks Kuwait.

There aren't good or evil people, there are just people.  Sometimes
their interests coincide with yours, sometimes the go against your
interests.  Same for corporations and other organizations.  When their
interest coincide with yours, you cooperate with them.  When they go
against your interests, you fight them.
