Speculation and silliness: "if Microsoft created robots with Trusted Computing built in, it would have a potential army."

• Delete WP is not a crystal ball, and this is just plain speculation Ian13 21:12, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Note that whether this is plausible or sensible is irrelevant: as a conspiracy theory, the question Wikipedia needs to ask is not "is this true", but "is this verifiable as a theory", i.e. "do lots of people believe this". In the absence of any evidence that anyone actually believes that Bill Gates' secret plan is to take over the world with an army of Palladium-enabled cyborgs, we should of course delete this - but for the right reasons, please! — Haeleth Talk 01:10, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
