The Rally’s hamburger fast food chain used to call itself the “fastest growing fast food chain” in the U.S.–but that was only in percentage terms. It’s easy for the smaller guy to have faster growth in percentage terms than the big guy.

Microsoft: market cap $268.89B, annual revenue $51B
Google: market cap $163.87B, annual revenue $10.6B
Apple: market cap $120.97B, annual revenue $19B

What I find troubling is the lack of acknowledgment that private industry is doing what it can to stifle technological progress as a means of achieving monopolistic status by frustrating competition. The Electronic Frontier Foundation reported on Sept. 11, 2007 that <i>"In an important ruling today, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked satellite television provider DirecTV's heavy-handed legal tactics and protected security and computer science research into satellite and smart card technology after hearing argument from the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)."</i> I hope that when private industry attempts to frustrate technological progress that this will be disclosed too and not overlooked.
