  1. Re:A Chilling Effect on Free Software Mag Interviews Sys-Con Publisher · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What's chilling is O'gara. It took awhile to put my finger on it, but O'gara was writing a message, not any kind of article. Think about it; there was no news value, no "facts" stated concretely, and no effort whatsoever to reach any interested reader on either side of the SCO debate.
    O'gara didn't write this to readers. She wrote this directly to PJ, intending to shake her up by instilling an uneasy sense of fear not only for herself, but FOR HER FAMILY. "Watch your step, PJ. You'd never forgive yourself if someone close to you got hurt. It's a dangerous world, with serial killers and all. ...and accidents happen all the time. See,PJ, if I can find you, so can anyone -- especially now." Now THAT'S chilling.

    Now, if they could do that with LEGOs, I'd be impressed.
