How else do you arm your private security to keep your slaves in line.
pacifism /ˈpasɪfɪz(ə)m/ noun the belief that war and violence are unjustifiable and that all disputes should be settled by peaceful means.
Funny how pacifists are the first to cry when someone hits them.
Then someone should kill them for their stupidity. Cancer doesn’t go away unless you cut it all out.

The government is made up of representatives, if you have a problem with your government blame your populace.
No, the government cares because they want a result and the ISPs are fucking with achieving that result and now it’s time to fuck them back for defrauding the government.
Sure, just ignore the context I provided and substitute it for your own, doesn’t change they were the market maker and the primary development platform for web with IE, I know this because I’ve probably been a developer longer than you’ve been alive, and had to create work arounds for compatability with netscape for those 8 years I mentioned.
What do you mean the competitors didn’t have market share, in '98 netscape was 41.5% of all browsers to IE’s 48.3%. You don’t even know what you’re talking about.
Your idealistic hard on with Microsoft’ s tactics doesn’t change the reality that they became market leader, or that they were the ones using that influence to drive standards. Saying the standards weren’t known is also bullshit because we were developing on those standards. So yes, Microsoft was market leader and Microsoft was calling the shots for website development standards, because they had market share whether you like how they got there or not, it doesn’t change this objective fact.
Funny how you want to engage in part of a conversation and then instead of wanting to hear a rebuttal you just want me to go away so you can think happy ignorant thoughts. Why did you bother responding?
Yes, everything you said is correct, ipso facto Microsoft won and was setting the standards at the time.
The competitors still had significant market share and thus their obstinance to follow the leader lead to a large portion of users that had to be catered to by web developers for compatibility due to corporate requirements for access to these market shares.
Thus because these competitors weren’t the key demographic, in the context of a developer, they were an additional burden due to the severe lack of uniform standards between major platforms.
Ahh the old Nutscrape Aggrivator. Refused to update with Microsoft standards and spent the next 8 years being a pain in the ass for website compatibility.
