Let me tell you something interesting. Skype was a "pet project" of some powerful ***nists that did the same thing with ENRON. You guys remember Enron right?! Well, ENRON was not about "accounting scandal to deflect against price manipulations" as much as it was "about accounting scandal to hide money laundering".... and indeed it worked for those *****ist bastards. They "sold" worthless pieces of paper to the unknowing public, meanwhile using "layered accounting" (you gotta study accounting tricks more) they SWINDLED the money, while the "courts" and "Feds" PRETEND to FIGHT for the people. It fooled just about EVERYBODY!!! "By way of deception...." indeed. The same thing is happening again and again and again. Watch out for the (1) credit bubble, (2) real estate bubble, and (3) their pet "distribution" monopoly, the $33 billion NET "piracy" campaign. Yeah, that's how much their make NET just from "international revenues." (which is a VERY SMALL fraction of their total REVENUE -- until you know the "insides" you won't understand why they FEAR peer-to-peer (or person-to-person) technology. It threatens their "distribution" chain, just like a drug dealer) ha ha, most of you don’t know about Skype….

Then, checking in with p2pnet, I find the glorious news that eBay might be going down!!! Great! Hurray for the little folk!! Generally speaking, a person does not gain anything by shopping on eBay. Sellers either set the opening "bid" too high, or they pad the shipping and handling fees beyond reason. Customer Service sucks. And I'm still not convinced that they don't have some way of artifically jacking up the bids. Nonetheless, I feel so much better having dumped all that garbage.

Its market reputation has been suffering ever since it bought Paypal, Then there are those ads. Amazon doesn't advertise, Google doesn't advertise. -------------------------------- Why doesn't Slyck show the Skype p2p population then if it is really 53 million? Because it's not. If its reputation has been suffering ever since it purchased Paypal, then why were there so many instant millionares (because of stock prices) when it bought Paypal? Since when does Amazon and Google not advertise. Hell, I bought a new pc and it already had the google toolbar in it. Most of the sites that I go to have something to do with Google. Just look above this page and you will see the Google search bar. Propaganda of course this it. Too bad people can't be honest these days. going on that Info-Tech estimates a third of the 53 million registered Skypers are business users.
