Blaming the victim, eh… Any other profound ideas you'd like enlighten us with?



I'm not blaming the victim because they aren't victims. They voluntarily choose to use software and are upset when it doesn't live up to their arbitrary standards, standards they themselves are doing nothing to reach when it's perfectly within their abilities to do so.

If you complained about how much you hate trackpads but refused to buy a USB mouse I wouldn't say that mice should be mandatory accessories bundled with every laptop sale, I'd say you should buy a mouse yourself or stop complaining about it.


Now imagine that Trackpad came in a Mouse box, only the fine print alluding to what was truly inside.

When confronted, they manufacturer states... but trackpads don't sell as well! There are perfectly good alternatives if you just read and truly care!
