Lets just be clear, I completely agree with TechCrunch: telling young kids
that these are the ideals is absurd. Next thing we know, one of our kids is
gonna tell us that open source is virus-infested when we go to grab our
Android phones and Linux computers and servers and such.

Few things upset me. This does.
