That's BS. The best defense is invisibility to the possible attacker.

Well, if the copyrighted site consents to google (why it wouldn't) then the link is legal. I just don't know how Google would handle the gazillions of links if they would have to ask for permission first.
These scum already take up the majority of bandwidth of the tubes. They are one reason why ISP's need to buy bigger servers and couldn't lower their prices. So, these scum directly cheat me out of my money, yeah. My time is also money. Losing a mail in the heap of spam can also cost you money. While i don't say they should be burnt or hung, i would like their fingers broken and banned from the net for a life.
Give it a few decades, please? How long the stone tablets held out? How long handwritten codexes held out? Just because books won't disappear tomorrow, it is no reason not to do the format shift before it is too late.
The reason for a book not found on the internet is people like Mr. Bradburry. Why his book isn't on the net? Because he didn't want it. What can i say about this? MEH. Your wish.
Eventually books will vanish, just like stone tablets did.
1. company A uses (as in download, improve, release source) GPL software 2. company B steals it (as in download, improve, sell binary) 3. first company sues second company 4. profit
This is a new field of technology, sure it needs several breakthroughs and refinements before it becomes practical. I prefer hearing news about it than no news at all.
>It's better for corporations and better for software.
From where you sucked that wisdom? Sure, it is better for stealing corporations. But why would it be better for the rest of the corporations and software? GPL'd code remains visible. BSD gets stolen away.
>I know guys who have sold products with tons of BSD code built in with the copyright notices removed and they never get sued by the BSD folks. Fine, if the BSD folks are fine with that, it is their 'business', not mine. I will be happily 'stealing' their freely given code, and do whatever i wish with it (including adding it to my GPL'd code. I, as a developer, prefer GPL because it means anyone who changes my code will contribute those changes back to me. And, i don't care a flying fuck if others like that or not:)
Ok, maybe they push some adverts in the face of some people who are lame enough to let adverts pop up. I never seen any. You still go there, no one forces you and no one hurts you if you choose to not let them push in your face.
I don't know if you do it wrong or not, though. What's your goal? Wanna see the adverts or not? If they pop up and you don't want to see them, you definitely do something wrong.

It was a communication problem between the botnet control servers. They just didn't get the update.

It's not $192M, it is a mere pittance of $2M
Still a bit steep for 24 crappy records.
Patents, as it was already told to you.
Even if they are invalid, no one wants to risk a long lawsuit with M$, except some patent trolls themselves.
I hope there will be more to come. When more than half of our delegates are local PP members, Balmer will more likely start to reconsider his crap.

You meant: its a trap!
Yes it is.
Yeah, that's very helpful.

What kind of internet was there 20 years ago?
Give it a few decades, please?
How long the stone tablets held out?

He actively stripped valuable content from the net.
How is that progressive?

Because he didn't want it.

But, color has nothing to do with it. It is simply a rich (influential) vs. poor (helpless) situation.
How many places would remain if all those spots are banned? There are only so much good landing sites on the Moon.
The rest goes to feed the sharks.
1. company A uses (as in download, improve, release source) GPL software
2. company B steals it (as in download, improve, sell binary)
3. first company sues second company
4. profit
no ???
After a few iterations, it will be fine.

Some probably come in from an internet cafe or steal some minutes from their work :)
Sounds like non intervention is good policy.
See what it did to the banking system and global economy?
I thought it compares implementations.
If you look harder, you'll see multiple different implementations of the same language.
M$ tends to tell the OEM's what to put on the HD.
Despite how one feels against M$, this is ridiculous.
It is not fair at all and could be used against other software with similar capabilities.
