It's society. Banks stopped accepting money unless they can trace where it comes from. Even shops want to follow you around. Surveillance cameras pop up in societies that never knew them. Your ISP has to spy on you as well. Governments pass laws to make companies spy on people if those companies do not do so voluntarily.
But the form of payment is openness. And given that the GPL want anyone to profit from it, there is no single entity that has suffered monetary damages. So payment can only be openness.
That was the first thing I tried as well. Got myself a jitsi account, tried to configure SIP with this account on my N900, tried again, tried for 3 full hours, and no. The account is not even recognised as capable of making voice calls. Maybe the jitsi client itself works with this account, but I am afraid I cannot call anyone else or any system that does not have the exact same software.
No we don't. There are plenty of applications that do not need constant availability but do need a lot of power. In fact, managing buffers is one of them. It is not THAT bad to wait a day or two to fill up your pool, or to pump the surplus of rain away (in the latter case, there is guaranteed enough wind to do so). You could even have a regular and an irregular grid for these purposes. But the OMG we have to keep heading for the brick wall exactly as we do now is just dangerous nonsense.
So that is why the Dutch powered their golden age mainly with wind power. Wind + mountains = buffer. Just pump up water and attach the hydro generators to your precious grid. Gee, I wonder how mankind has ever accomplished anything before there even was a grid.
Maybe the solution is to realize things are fucked, and just go with it.
No. the real solution is to change the fact that these stupid things are lawful. FSF has a nice example, but the wrong target. They should target the law and politics for making these absurd situations possible. The law should protect you from these situations, not encourage them. Nintendo is only guilty of using the possibilities they were given. Target the people responsible for giving Nintendo these possibilities.
That is part of a job for a sys admin. If they were happy with one admin and no backup, the damage is at most a part of his salary for the amount of time that it would normally have cost him.
It is not specific to Nintendo, Sony, or whatever company. The problem is that they can put whatever in the "terms" (which are only shown after the sale) and that for some incomprehensible reason some "law" systems abide extreme corporate fantasies instead of protect from them.

Yup, it's the price. My Aspire One never was $100 and never will be. So if you see one for $100, it is bound to be stolen.
Companies would still use the cheapest labour, say that labour is expensive and pocket the profits.
Nothing. With our global warming efforts, we are just making sure that there is something that survives us.

I always thought we invented the herring-eating to make foreigners look foolish when they try our quaint culture.
If the "alternative syntax" from PHP were allowed, the language could even become legible. What I see is still a write-only language.

The USA fights anything with military force. Be it international justice, drugs, terrorists or whatever.
Well, German words can sound very powerful!

Under DMCA, freenet and tor are probably "circumvention devices". So you are guilty of wanting free speech.
True, I think that after the GPL, BSD is the most commonly known one.
So a redirecting service redirects to a fake redirecting service that somehow redirects but to the wrong place? And how is that useful?
Apart from that, there are no clouds in space.

Yep. But it's a gamble.

Unless you only hire one admin to do it.

We should invade Australia to help bring corporatocracy to the region?
Too late guys, they already have plenty of it.
