SCO to Take On Hollywood

An anonymous reader writes "Daniel Lyons, the man you may remember for calling the FSF 'Linux's Hit Men' is now reporting that SCO is 'Holding Up Hollywood.' Their reasoning? It's because 'They're using a ton of Linux in Hollywood, so they've become a lightning rod for us,' says Darl McBride, SCO's chief executive. As usual, Groklaw provides insightful commentary concerning rehash SCO has planted to remain in the news, saying 'Maybe they should fulfill prior threats before they throw out new ones? Otherwise, it could lead some of us to doubt their sincerity.'" At least it's smarter than trying to sell a license to every home user of Linux.

    I don't know much about law/the justice system, but WHY THE FUCK haven't we seen the government/any other body take action against SCO, for it's actions which seem so painfully obviously wrong, unfair and plain fuckin' evil, and which have been growing steadily worse for the past 9 months?
