You wouldn't happen to be "...abridging the freedom of speech...", would
you???
No, not everyone knows about astalavista.box.sk. However, most of us do. Why?
Because people told us about it. I don't know about you, but I don't spend my
free time punching in random URI's.
The word for this is NOT stealing. You are encouraged to download the
software by the manufacturer. All you are doing is modifying it. What? It's
against the EULA??? Ah, but that is why people use software like the
customizer...
You don't need to be afraid of the police walking into your house and
scanning your computer- if you are wise, as apparently not all of us are.
I believe that quality software should be rewarded, and in this day and age
monetary gain is the main motivation for most people, and therefore the most
common reward. However, I believe that the people that ambushed Mr. Maletsky
are far worse people than he, for they assaulted him for speaking up.
Mr. Maletsky: Do not apologize to anyone for having the courage to speak up.
Those who would smite all intellectual opposition shall only grow weak over
time, while dragging the rest of humanity down with them. In order for us to
grow as a species, we must work together.
I thought that was what open source was all about- working together to better
humanity, not just ourselves. I still believe it is, but I believe that those
who ambushed Mr. Maletsky are disgraces to this cause. You should be using
ASP.
