Ridiculous. I've already pointed out repeatedly the chicoms get much MUCH more from companies that provide them open source software, like IBM, Red Hat and Novell, which literally GIVE them ownership of the software to do whatever they want with it.

Like anyone who has to work with IBM on a regular basis, I am not too fond of them... But it still holds that MS gives the chicoms special treatment it does not give to Americans, and thats fact..

Your fixation on Microsoft, who is only allowing them to view portions of the code, under strict circumstances, exposes the complete hypocrisy of your position.

If MS let all American customers to look at 97% of the source you would have a point. but Linux is treated the same world wide, Americans have the same access as the Fin who wrote the code in the first place. but if you want to look at 97% of the windows source you need to be either a MS employee or a Chinese communist..

To sum up:
Linux: GM get same treatments as chicoms
MS: chicoms get better treatment than GM

Like anyone who has to work with IBM on a regular basis, I am not too fond of them... But

But you'd rather give them a free pass and complain about Microsoft instead who doesn't collude with the chicoms to near the same degree. Yeah, we noticed. It's called hypocrisy.

LOL you're all twisted in knots, yet again, and prove you don't even know what you're talking about. It shows what you're up to, when you say something completely wrong like that. If you were a Microsoft "MVP", which means you're an engineer that doesn't work for Microsoft, you could have access to the code as well as all the governments can, not just the Chinese. Wrong on basically everything you just said. Typical.
