How will putting a little button that says "I and my parents agree to the above conditions" stop sex offenders on social networks any more than "I agree" buttons on nonfree software when the EULA comes up prevent sharing?
Anyone who confuses the Web and the Internet isn't qualified to report about either.
And anyone who puts a ® at the end of an entire article as if it was a copyright symbol isn't qualified to copyright or register as a trademark anything.
If KDE4 is ported to Windows, many users will think "Hey, I can have the same thing as GNU/Linux, so why would I switch?" and they'll keep running nonfree software.

On the contrary, providing it is a disservice to users. Proprietary software is dangerous (go to any popular GNU/Linux IRC channel and wait for some newb to come with his system screwed up by proprietary drivers) and takes away users' freedoms.
Fedora is not Debian. It does not endorse proprietary software.
Get rid of the nonfree crap so we don't need the GNUzilla/IceWeasel fork. I heard that Mozilla and Google are doing something to replace the nonfree bug report extension. But there's still the plugin finder, which recommends only nonfree software. For PDFs there are plenty of free readers; for Flash, Gnash is getting there; and the GCJ plugin instead of Sun's Java. Recommend Mozplugger for anything else.

Stop stealing window focus! I miss so many IMs because the Firefox pushes the IM windows under.
Fix print previews.
KDE integration, especially the file selection dialog.
An easy way to get rid of the search bar. I never use it.
Since when can you download to something? You can upload to something, or you can download from something.
...if it doesn't solve the problem, use more! :P
It's Zoidburg!
"...or oral defamatory..."
That would be slander. Libel is only written or pictoral.
If this goes through, we won't have to wory about anyone else making DRMed drivers.

IANAL, but I'm doubtful about the legality of that.
They should just have a tiny version of their logo at the top for that anyway, it's not misleading.

open DRM.
Translation: several years.
You're totally missing the point. Anyway, what if they've only talked to one person a little about GNU/Linux and that person called it GNU/Linux?

It's impossible to copyright something that short.
That's what I was gonna post when I first saw the title...
I'll get the extinguisher!

I'm using FC on my server. I'll have time to upgrade it on the weekend.
The drivers nVidia makes aren't free. Fedora doesn't include nonfree software.
