"I understand the decision from a marketing point of view. But it saddens me that it's no longer economically viable to declare who we are."

I don't understand it.

Freedom isn't marketable??? Are there too many potential customers out there saying, "Freedom? Oh no. None for me, thanks."

I don't see any value in having things named "Freedom" in a country where there is less freedom every day. It's a little too Ingsoc for me.

For example, if the building was named "Hugo Chavez Tower" and I could take my Leatherman on an airline flight, on balance I'd call that a plus.

Well, for one, the Chinese are offended. And probably the North Koreans - and definitely the Iranians...
