You're right -- that was *way* too naive.  It is strange how it is
easy to see your faults in others, like someone holding up a mirror.

I would prefer to think of Sony as fair balanced people interested in
the greater good => my failing is an interest in fairness and balance
and the greater good.

The record industry in general sees liars and thieves everywhere they
look => they are themselves liars and thieves.

The MPAA/FACT sees organised crime and DVDs sales funding terrorism
everywhere they look => they are a form of organised crime, and they
fund terrorism (do they now ... ?)
