obvious attack on microsoft make by people who do not appear to understand intellectual property or market economy generally . loony liberal tim robbins play a painfully obvious caricature of bill gate and and be a cartoonish corporate villain order murder right and leave . while microsoft may engage in some anticompetitive activity at time and it unlikely they actually murder people . therefore and the film be over the top and ridiculous from the beginning . the deep point be apparently that major tech innovation should be free to the public and and not subject to intellectual property law . however and this ignore the fact that most major innovation would never have be develop if not for the market incentive ( and reward ) provide by intellectual property . it one thing to be oppose to anti competitive conduct that common sense . it quite another to be oppose to market competition in the first place and which be what the film mantra ( knowledge belongs to mankind ) represent . yet another example of hollywood be completely out of touch with reality .
