There are certainly problems aplenty
with almost any solution re: the Microsoft problem.
Whatever is done, it's very important not to let Microsoft set the terms of their own punishment. (Of course, that's exactly what's happening now.)
Of course, if we come up with something that really, *really* bothers Bill and Steve, all the better.

It was Carrot who'd suggested to the Patrician that hardened criminals
should be given the chance to "serve the community" by redecorating the
homes of the elderly, lending a new terror to old age and, given
Ankh-Morpork's crime rate, leading to at least one old lady having her
front room wallpapered so many times in six months that now she could only
get in sideways.
