Dvorak on Creative Commons

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the lots-of-opinions dept.

pHatidic writes "In a recent article, John Dvorak trashes creative commons as being, 'one of the dumbest initiatives ever put forth by the tech community. I mean seriously dumb. Eye-rolling dumb on the same scale as believing the Emperor is wearing fabulous new clothes.' His main arguments are that CC unnecessarily complicates copyright law, and that the name sounds dumb."

    Does slashdot get a flat fee for each dvorak article they flog on here or is it % based or hit based or what?

    Typical ./ garbage. When Dvorak trashes open content he is a troll. When he touts FOSS he is a saint.

    I'll probably get modded down for this. LOL.

    It is a Dvorak story. Dvorak himself should have a perminant -10 Troll moderation tattoed to his forehead.

    You mean one similar to the -10 Overrated moderation tattoed on your penis?
