None of your examples sound like a reason for the government (in this case the police) to step in. Free speech should protect people from abusive government. If John Jackson want to sue Jack Johnson over what was said let them - as long as it's a civil lawsuit.
People talk such NONSENSE and BUNK when it comes to free speech. No one decent human being would find parent's examples good cases for a nanny state to take care of.
Speech is either free or not.
Who is making money on not installing body scanners at the airports ?
Who is making money on not installing cameras everywhere ?
Who is making money on not waging wars ?
Red Hat - 70790 commits [1]
Canonical - 4487 commits [1]
Red Hat - 3200 emplyees [2]
Canonical - 350 employees [3]
Red Hat - 1993 (we take GNOME - 1999) [2]
Canonical - 2004 [3]
Red Hat - 2.01 (commits / employee / year)
Canonical - 2.13 (commits / employee / year)
So you tell me - who is giving more to GNOME ?
The correct answer is: we don't know. If we take only one variable (commits), Red Hat is obviously in the lead. If we take two more variables (number of employees and years of contribution), Canonical takes the lead. Is it humanely possible to take into consideration every single variable out there ? I don't think so. So what are we quarrelling about ? Let's commit some code to GNOME instead.
Interesting, but would you know about a FOSS solution for Windows? That would be really great.
Setting up a GNU/Linux gateway for only one computer that is powered off when I'm not using it seems like an overkill.
If I had a set-up like that I could leave torrents to work at night and and had no need for traffic shaping.
I wonder after what time such gateway would consume energy worth those 15 euros I've spent on cFos...
As for the irony - it only works if we label torrent traffic as illegal-only and assume those that download things "for free" will pay for their copy of cFos.

"They have many licensed components in their code." Company went with proprietary solution and is facing problems because of it. News at 11.

Does it have to be automatic? If one wants to make a profit on a creative work, one can make an effort to have it copyrighted.

I find that cFosSpeed helps a lot with this problem.
AC may not have given any details (or wiki), but using argumentum ad hominem isn't nice either.
