WHQL 

Windows Hardware Quality Labs, Microsoft's division where they test software (often drivers) on various hardware to see if it works properly.

I'm not downloading those drivers, I'll wait for the WHQL certified version in case they screw up.

hubris 

Advanced arrogance, thinking you're way more important than you really are and are really presumptious. Closely related to megalomania.

It's about time the RIAA is smitten by some deity for hubris and stop thinking they are the law.

fud 

Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. Also known as scare tactics, either accomplished by threat or making the opponent doubt his standpoint. Not only used in lawsuits, but also in politics and military propaganda.

The company's FUD spreading caused many supporters to abandon their cause, except for the few that could see through its scaremongering propaganda.
