Well according to the many articles on app piracy currently there is a very distinct possibility that all those hours slaving over any app might be a total waste of time, well if your trying to get rich anyway – but then the idea that someone might try and steal an app that shuts everything down is funny anyway. Like a unintended virus.

Do you have a site feed? I cant see one, maybe Ive not used Freedom enough yet?

I want to make it clear that Total Freedom is purely a money thing for me. There are no lofty motives. It’s a very simple deal. I smash your stuff up. You pay me £50.

I imagine Tim arriving in a ‘Total Freedom’ van which is belting out a bad computerised version of Greensleeves … all the kids in the neighbourhood running from blocks around because they know some electronic equipment is going to get bashed into hundreds of pieces. This could be a defining growing-up memory for thousands of kids and I reckon this type of community building exercise is worth way more than £50. With a local govt partnership and some crowd-funding, I see a whole new business… spin-off shows, a documentary, ‘Total Freedom Tim’ merchandise… ;).

Cheers Tim,

Just what I needed was a good rant to cheer up my day :-)

p.s. £50 not included

Couldn’t agree more with you. It’s an unnecesary app based on guilt

That’s an interesting suggestion Mike. Thanks.

Don’t know. I’m a bit extreme on this kind of stuff. I think people will cope, and find more and more advanced ways of coping – including getting rid of these slow old meat-bodies and augmenting ourselves with machines… bring it.

Great article on writing. Long though isn’t it? I found myself glazing over.

Can you pay the £50 upfront?
