Diebold sues Massachusetts?
Aren't corporations always bitching about frivolous lawsuits? I guess Diebold never did...
Diebold, everyone's favorite manufacturer of easily hacked voting machines, wasn't happy when the Commonwealth of Massachusetts decided to go with one of their competitors when purchasing voting machines for the disabled. In fact, their feelings were so badly hurt by the snub that they've decided to sue the state.Yes, Diebold is suing because Massachusetts chose competitor AutoMARK instead of them. Why is it worth suing the state over this? Because Diebold thinks their machines are better. That's the reason. Really. That's the only reason. I'm speechless. –Adam Frucci
Gee, Diebold. Maybe if your shit didn't suck you'd sell some of it. Of course, since it does you resort to a lawsuit. Maybe I should sue Paramount for not buying my movie treatment about a guy who sits in a room and does nothing all day. Except shit himself. They said it sounded like a super bad movie. I think they're all talentless hacks but I don't turn around and sue them. Mostly because I have a sneaking suspicion it's kind of a shitty idea.
That, and the fact that SUING A CONSUMER FOR NOT BUYING YOUR CRAP IS STUPID.
What's next, Corporate America? Suing me for not eating Linda McCartney's Tofu Treats?
