[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 4747222, member: 23977"] The example holds no matter what you believe the "realities of the internet" to be. WoTC has a product, and finds that product is compromised. So they pull the product back, in order to find a less compromised method of sale. Whether or not it costs them any money to make that poduct, is insignificant. They have a product that has been compromised. Will it work? Who knows? It might help, or it might not, I'm glad I'm not the one who had to make that choice. I doubt it will ever make the problem fully "go away" but it's possible it could help reduce it to "acceptable" levels. Someone might still steal your car, but at least you're no longer leaving your doors unlocked. But to argue that it's some type of hidden plan to get people to buy a product they don't want? That just seems WAY to over the top for me to believe. (Especialy whn done in such a fashion.) [/QUOTE]
