As of Iranians, they're very smart peoplesplagued by bad climate (hot),
which is alos the reason American South is poorer than North.
But I believe they do use Windows in addiiton to Linux because they're so
many engineers in Iran - they have no problems cracking any software, it's
common knowledge that in Russian & CHina not 10, not 30, but a whoipping 95%
of software i spirated because of 2 factors:
a) they have brains
b) they have no money.
It's a deadly combination, when smart people are pressured they get things
for free.
And that is why we must enforce stiff tariffs on imports from those
countries until they start enforcing copyrights.
I was born/raised in Russia and still keep Russian passport just for the
history, even though a US Citizen since 1999.
I hate them for this piracy because if we were stealing from them, we'd be
even; but we don't We don't crack their software whcih they do create a
lot, we don't emulate their spacecraft, optics & heavy machinery. There's
respect for trademarks in USA, not in Russia or China.
I know Ruissians form INSIDE, they're pretty sleek in cracking.
There's a silver lining in this however, it's not as bad for USA as seems,
because... these people immigrate here (like myself) in hordes and
strengthen US economy with inventions and design/etc engienering work. Do
you know how Microsoft depends on ASIANS working fo rthem here in the
States?
So if they steal some, they also contribute some; bu tof course they steal
more than contribute. |
