There you go again, throwing out that word "criminal" when you have not shown that the hackers in that case are even eligible for criminal prosecution for their actions, much less have been convicted of anything. You're lucky libel isn't a criminal offense. And what is this about defending communists?
You also have a problem with lying, as we saw you try to deny my claim that Microsoft is only paying for licenses, and not ongoing patent royalties
Making a statement, being shown it is not necessarily true, then immediately admitting it isn't a lie. It's a mistake. I remember only one case where you admitted a mistake after a LOT of prodding, otherwise you just distract from your lies, like you are doing right now.
It's very hard to clean up after your mess. It's like playing whack-a-mole with your lies because you switch subjects and go on the offensive on unrelated tangents when we confront a lie.
So here's your chance, 'fess up, just for this thread, on the following lies, distortions and unsupported claims:
I will agree, admitting it immediatetly is better than some of your other lies, which you have admitted you carried on purposefully for months, but in this case your own link didn't even support your claim LOL.
your lies
Quit changing my words, and twisting the points. Torvalds was raised by communists, and the illegal DVD and MP3 software is typically downloaded from socialist parts of Europe as well. Torvalds was so far out of the loop on this, he claims he wasn't even told it was happening, so don't try to act like he's being properly compensated for all his work, but of course it was his decision to use copyleft verses normal copyright in the first place, one that was terribly foolish whether he's smart enough to realize it yet or not.
