Mozilla & Gecko clones Last week, Mozilla started placing a warning message on its welcome page, seen by users after they upgrade Firefox to the latest version, informing the user if they have an out of date Flash Player. Now the stats have been crunched, and the result is that 10 million people have clicked the link, doing more than Adobe's own efforts to keep people up to date.

my god ... lol @ billionaires .......... do you really think it is in their best interest to be dishonest. Businesspeopel do not get wealthy by being dishonest, they get wealthy by producing a product that people need, trust, and understand, it is in the best interest of the business owner to produce the best product possible.... my god ....... you people are really ignorant thinking that businesses are out to get you. The capitalist makes he world go round. Mutual profit for you and the business at hand.

And where did the OP say anything about dishonesty? And by the way, your definition about how the business world works might hold true for your country (Utopia, perhaps?) but there are many, many companies that make quite some money by screwing consumers and other companies without offering anything valuable; the patent trolls being a prime example.
