By your weak logic, bicyle tires are perfectly on topic here,
inasmuch as it's a certainty that there are mac users who also
ride bicycles.  In other words, you seem to think there are not
bounds.  As I said previously, Jeff kindly brought this back to
topic by talking about the mac-specific impact.

Would it have been that hard to add, at the beginning of your
post, "I saw this and was wondering what tools for the mac
might help avoid this."

(And if you were talking about bicycles, it might be similarly
on-topic if you were asking about an appropriate way to mount
or safely transport a mac on a bicycle).

But no, all by themselves, neither the government nor the
bicycle is an appropriate topic for a mac-specific newsgroup.
