A hallmark of this period of creation that mirrors today is a culture of sharing, and we see that in both times, innovators benefited from spaces and mediums to explore, share, and build upon each other. Does this mean I have to start wearing trunk hose?
I was going to go with 'ruff', but apparently they were later than the renaissance (the really egregious ones anyway)

Microsoft has decided to no longer offer the Windows 10 Notepad through the Microsoft Store, which will most likely cause future updates to become available at a slower pace. The guy that downloaded it will be very disappointed

What, didn't everyone enthusiastically adore the new icons and colour scheme that they added to notepad as one of their figurehead improvements in a recent winio update?
There are obviously too many Luddites using computers, these days.

Actually, I don't have to "would have thought" it -- taking possession of anything that you know to be illegally-obtained is a criminal offence.

As cellphones got smarter, they also became marginally more dangerous to the clumsy, easily distracted humans holding them, according to new research. D'oh!

Yes, but does this include the people who were hit over the heads by the people who stole their phones?
