I want to say something about "ah, the joys and workings of capitalism" but I'll just be called a baiter Laughing

So I'll just say "hopefully I'll be able to get cheaper computer monitors now!".

You're assuming that they didn't make 10 times as much money as they received in fines.

Also the guys that got away best here are the ones that turned the others in... they have all the money from the price-fixing and they don't get a fine... they're way ahead of the rest now, probably.

And then find some way to bring criminal charges against large numbers of people in countries wholly outside their jurisdiction.

If you want to use Tor to get that, you won't get in; while what exactly are you doing can't be detected, using Tor can and *chans usually block Tor users.
Don't ask me how do I know that

I am very confused by all this wiki leaks stuff. I've been working too much to really keep up with crap and, damnit, I just don;t think i care enough. Also, I'm begging tothink that I am more drunk than I thought when I began to type out this response. I'm not drunk enough to realize that it is almost certaintly not helpful or interesting enough to anyone in any way to actually warrant me typing it out, but I am just drunk enough that I do not care enough not to do it.
