And the email, from Microsoft, that they've made changes to their End User Licensing Agreement, which I should read and either consent to or stop using their products.
This is such a load of shit. I mean, first of all, no one ever reads the EULA, we are forced instead to follow web-zines that monitor privacy and advise us as to how our "rights" are being eroded, abused and perpetually compromised. If anyone ever read the EULA there is very little likelihood that anyone would ever buy an app or product. But even more offensive (as if this wasn't enough already) is that companies have the right - after you've purchased or subscribed to their product - to alter or change the EULA. Probably there is room to challenge this, with a crack legal team and countless millions of dollars of resources, but that edge is given to corporations, not consumers, and the corporations that provide us the product know this.

Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer:
"I know that in cases like this, no matter what the decision is, there will be people that question it, people that will not support it. And I always know in decisions that are this critical, you're not going to have everybody that supports it, not the officers, not the union. Perhaps not the family and maybe not even the community. But I promise I will do the right thing in this investigation and I'm asking people to trust me to do that,"
Just kill the police and start again. Really.

And a worthy on how police made the Tamir Rice case just disappear. Without consequences for themselves or the involved officers. http://www.gq.com/story/tamir-rice-story?mbid=digg
