Ok, the press release covers more arguments 
http://www.scriptumlibre.org/Press_Release_Boycott_Trend_Micro

But if you think it is important to mention more arguments on the main 
page that is possible of course. On the other hand there is a logical 
order top down on that page I don't want to disturb. I.e. teaser 
(cartoon), short intro (yes, no depth), act, learn more, stay up to date.
