Torrent criminal legally forced to use Windows

I allways thougth the 8th amendment of the US bill of rights protected anyone from cruel and inhumane punishment.

Well i guess legaly forcing an open source user into using Windows because the government is incapable of writing tracking software to monitor him perfectly fits the label Bullshit made in the USA.

Slashdot article
Whats next? The DOJ forcing american citizens into using Windows because CIPAV may have problems spying on secure operating systems?

Besides all this and the discussion whether a non-violent crime as copyright infringement should be punished by jail time and confinement and if this sentence about forcing such criminals into using proprietary software if they want to use a computer again there is actually only one point i want to make in this post:

Is the fact that the US government is not able (or not willing) to write tracking software and other forensic foo for Linux to spy on people good marketing for Linux and other open source operating systems?

Hell yeah!!! 🙂
