Internet Poker... doomed from Day 1

Quick questions for those who say "it's available to everyone"....

A few months ago, there was a well known site (I forgot the name) that was looking to implement HUDs into their software for all players to have. What do you think of that? Yay or Nay? I would assume Nay.

Now, IF that were implemented on the site, what percentage of total players (not 2+2ers) do you think would be like "wow, I've never seen this before!"? 20%? 80%? My guess would be it's closer to the 80%. Just goes to show how widely known this stuff really isn't. (like that grammar?)

OK, final question....

If you answered Nay to the first question, it's probably because you want to hide these software tools from the 80% in the 2nd question. Do you honestly think we should be more entitled to these programs than they are because we clicked a few download links, ran some imports, or shared databases and they didn't? Before answering the last question, think very carefully about our entitlement and what we did to "earn" the right to these tools (clicking download links, running imports, sharing DBs....none of which are even REMOTELY POKER RELATED).

That's what's unfair IMO. I'm anxious to hear some replies from this thread's vocal software proponents.

Poker players make money off other players mistakes. Since fish would make less mistakes with a HUD I probably wouldn't play there. Do I think it's wrong? Absolutely not, why would it?

What's your point? So what if 80% plus have never heard of it before. Their ignorance is not our fault.

Just because I'd like my players to have less knowledge of how to correctly play poker doesn't make me unethical. I'd like to hear a response as to why you think thats so.
