  1. Re:[OT] /. Hate Crime Policy? on Law Professor Examines SCO Case · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and looks like the nick is one of them, and a 7-grader at that. I am pretty sure using terms such as "erase" (w.r.t to people) in public media is in fact illegal. And allowing such nicks is a very bad idea. I suggest /. expands moderation to the nicks, -- in this case, the nick should carry a permanent karma whore rating. This would disabuse the poster of such an idea fix.

    No, he doesn't obey the laws when he publishes his hatred. Incitement to hatred is a crime, and is treated as such in Germany, US, and other civilized countries. I denmand /. shuts down the account, and removes the nick from the archived thread, possibly with a link to an explanation that the poster violated the laws of the land. While /. is disclaiming the messages, it allowed creation of an account with a hateful name. I believe this is condoning the nick, and would like to see a /. response to this. Well, /. seems made for 7-graders, at least the user is most likely one of them, but it's even worse to expose the rest of the readers to this kind of useless provocation, isn't it? As a person thoroughly familiar with the history of Nazi policies, and having family members lost in Shoa, I strongly object to allowing this kind of provocation anywhere, and to any lame defenses trying to legitimize them.

    You should decide already, whether it is the girls who suck or anti-semites. Did you ever meet an anti-semite girl? Perhaps that kind would understand your random ramblings...

  4. [OT] /. Hate Crime Policy? on Law Professor Examines SCO Case · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Apparently we have a case of an immature individual committing an act of anti-semitism, illegal in the US, where this site is hosted and read a lot, and in Europe, where it's read a lot, too. CmdrTaco, the elders: are you going to do something about this individual and his petty agenda? I believe we don't deserve to see racial hatred nick above a message. Isn't the user in violation of /. policies? I'll watch this nick's posts, if it doesn't C&D will refer this to the Defamation League. (Also, if the e-mail works, hotmail should shut down their account as well.)

  6. RMS on the whole mess? on SCO Terminates IBM's Unix License · · Score: 1

    Where does RMS speak of SCO -- link please? I went to his homepage and saw that he wants to find a girlfriend at 50, that's what'll happen to all you ./ppl if you keep following this case till you're that age... :))) I was in a room in MoSCOw 10 years ago when he brought GNU to Russia to save the tapes in case US drowns in legalese like this... But looking for SCO on his page brings up Berlusconi (Darlusconi?), San Francisco (san SCO? san Cisco?), a Scottish lawyer (warmer, warmer!)... but no real SCO?

  7. Re:Possible Suggestion! on Did SCO 'Borrow' Linux Code? · · Score: 1

    I was suggesting a faster way, an injunction like in Germany, but the editors seem much more interested in silly game controllers than really defending OSS. Random chants is what seem to make /. tick in their opinion, not building actual consensus, or they are incapable of that. I got a canned response from Rob Malda for a general rejection explanation, and no help at all w.r.t. to OSI/FSF mobilization... doesn't matter. Now, the idea is to mirror German's Univention's achievement: find any serious Linux player whose business is damaged by SCO's FUD, among those 1,500 blackmailed by SCO extortionists; inspire them to sue SCO; sue and ask for imemdiate injunction against SCO, punishable by a fine -- 250,000 euros in Germany.

  8. SCO Mocks Stallman and Perens; Injunction? on Latest SCO News · · Score: 2, Interesting

    SCO insinuates that Stallman and Perens advocate breaking the law. I wonder, why wouldn't FSF or OSI request an immediate injunction stopping SCO's fraudulent behavior against the Linux community, as it was done in Germany?

  9. IBM's filing is a way to respond on Today's SCO News · · Score: 2, Interesting

    $CO has the IBM's response on its site, a PDF of a fax. It just goes over paragraphs, denying each "averment," and granting things sounding like, paraphrasing: Unix-like operating systems are widely used indeed, IBM POWER chip is more powerful than Intel's, and IBM has nothing much to say as to whether Linux is popular among computer enthusiasts! Their response to Prayer for Relief is basically: response is not needed; if needed, there's no relief, or any relief -- it's hilarious!
