Correct on the first part. It is a right that can be bought and sold like property. If you'd look at my history (and I know you do), you'll notice that I think a violation of rights is worse than theft. So incorrect on the second part.
You even accused Microsoft of "lifting" BSD code remember
Yes, I remember when you tried to twist my words out of context, when I had in fact defended Microsoft on that issue. You never retracted that instance of false witness either.
Hilarious. You came running to help some other guy's claim that Microsoft had "lifted" what is considered free code, very similar to what you were doing here. You're all for free software when it's foreign hackers or the Chinese government getting it, but if it's someone you don't like such as Microsoft you act like something is wrong. It's like N3WBI3 and his "open source" ping list, just don't dare try to use it like open source LMAO, since he then freaks out and all the hypocritical skeletons come tumbling out of the closet. Same here with you.
