This is funny to me. The US Government is forcing this fellow (who is guilty of software/music/movie piracy) to use Windows if he wants to use the internet so that they can monitor his internet usage, because the software that the government uses ONLY supports Windows...
Apparently he's an Ubuntu Linux user (Linux is the Operating System which BitTorrent runs on, which is this major vehicle for file transfers--a lot of pirated stuff...) which means that not only does have to be monitored by the government, but he has to use an operating system that most likely he despises... ha ha ha ha ha... Sometimes it must be fun to be a judge prosecuting folks like this... :)
If you know anything about Linux users, they take special pride in the fact that they don't use microsoft products. :) Talk about a cruel and unusual punishment... hee hee hee...
