Could you please provide any reference of actual proof? I still haven't seen any, only broad claims.
We have had so many proofs of spying from US infrastructure companies, I believe hat the first assumption is that you can't trust the infrastructure, wherever it comes from. The communication protocols should take tat into account and encrypt everything with strong end to end crypto. The downside being that spying would then be made more difficult for our 'allies'.
How can this still be called a smartwatch if it can't deal with DSL? Is it giving the correct time at least? In any case the smart adjective is overrated.
So, the old way of creating content and get a financial reward will disappear. Is it a great loss ? I am not sure as the end result that we are getting at this moment is not very satisfying. Most artists don't get a fair share for their creation while a few are overly rewarded. And I'm not even mentioning the "copyright industry".
I am sure that the will to create is so strong that people will find new way to get paid for their creation. And we can hope that the money will be more evenly distributed and that more people will be able to create content. That's the way it goes in a free market, the same that is so much praised in the content produced by the entertainment industry
I kinda think this is just a useless move to annoy him
As stated above, his driver can live in user-space, which seems more natural, and enables to make a fully free kernel.
he makes the effort to make opensource what he can (NDA) but provides a binary only module (on his own website) to add some more functionality (larger image/higher fps).
Please read his post http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/8/24/278, he says that the NDA has expired one year ago. Everything could have been released under the GPL.
This is already the case. You have to pay for the research and if the results get published, you have to pay to consult them because of the copyright agreement that the researcher has to sign in order to get published.
As a researcher, if your results are not published, then nobody will pay you anymore for your job.
But the article is not clear about what was published by the DOE. Were they articles, drafts or what ? And why doesn't the DOE remove articles from the big publishers who sued and keep those from little publishers that are not distributed elsewhere ?
I personnally think that the best way to get into desktop business would be to have a decent office suite (openoffice is still really unstable) and a real powerful tool to translate all those ugly.doc documents. And then we could get rid of at least one proprietary format !
Introducing MS application into Linux is not the way to go ! But I am not surprised that it comes from SuSE.
You might imagine, but this is not the case. Today I went to the website of an important computer dealer in France and it never answered to mozilla. With Konqueror I was able to see some pages but not to buy anything and with opera identified as IE5.0 everything was ok. And this is one of the most important dealer in Paris.

In fact the port to macOS has already been made and is called fink.
