Originally posted by Coby That's the stupidest thing I've heard in a long time. I was starting to type up a big long post to explain why it was stupid and try and explain the point of these kinds of copyrights -- but I don't think it'd be worth my time. So forget it. |

Originally posted by BGNG This is absurd, no where in any of my previous posts was there anything that could be closely considered flaming. The overreaction on your part to a very simple question is utterely puzzling. I ask about statements pertinent to this discussion that are obviously immensely perplexing (to be kind) to anyone who has any knowledge of these matters, and I get called out for flaming?? Well fuck, if I'm getting blamed for it anyway... BGNG: Go fuck yourself Originally posted by BGNG You're either more retarded than I thought or absolutely insane. From Richard Mother-Fucking Stallman (creator of the GNU project) This is so central to what the GNU stands for that I can't even believe you keep repeating your claims. I don't seem to recall GNU ever stating, as you say, that it was to establish it's stated goals of gving rights to software users to modify the programs that run on their computer without any sort of legal framework in place. The only restrictions placed on the code say, "Don't steal my shit" and, "if you use my shit as a base for your new code, make sure other people can do the same so they are offered the cool new advancements you made on top of my code." |

Also BGNG seems to make the mistake that you have to give out a GPL'd program to anyone who wants it, modified or unmodified. All that the GPL asks for is that if you choose to distribute the program, the source has to be just as readily available (assuming the distribution isn't source-only already). | |||

Originally posted by Coby It's easy to tell in a lot of cases by comparing disassembled code. That's how it was found that Sony's XCP crap was doing this. |
