It's failing miserably at dealing with it, actually. And legislation 
will come. What you call poisoning, people in the real world call 
compromise, adn it's that unwillingness to compromise that causes geeks 
to get marginalized out of these discussions in the first place, which 
means they don't get ANY significant input into these situations. the 
geek community demands all or nothing, then complains when they get one 
of their choices...
