I just read a post there the poster used the term "slave" to refer to the receiving device. It made me recall the uproar about the use of "master" and "slave" in technical situations (or maybe BDSM I don't recall ).
It seems that was a flash in the pan by a bunch of folks who wanted to control how others used words that they associated with people being slaves.
So do we just have to live long enough for these A__H___s to move on to the next craze?
