Batteries. Not too long ago I stumbled upon and interesting problem. I found a real situation, in which a company has more rights than "just a person." This is not about a billion-dollar lawsuit, or lobbying the government, this is about a simple AA battery. [kuro5hin.org]

Here is where you can get the industrial strength batteries, but you have to be a business in order to purchase them. Interesting that they do not want to sell these to the general public, though it makes sense from the perspective of apocraphal story of the company that went out of business by making light bulbs that lasted for years.
