The only thing you've proven is you're well versed in Russian culture and want them to have free and complete access to technology developed in the USA by NASA and the NSA. Oh and that you'll endlessly insult someone for calling you on it.

Why, thank you. I studied the USSR and Russian society extensively during the Cold War -- knowing your enemy is good. I've been keeping up since the fall of communism.

want them to have free and complete access to technology developed in the USA by NASA and the NSA.

Only whatever the TLAs and FLAs decide to release. They're the authors, its they're prerogative. Unlike you, I believe the author of software can choose which license to release it under, and whether to release it at all.

On the flip side, I do like that so many talented foreigners have decided to let us use their excellent software for free. Oh, I forgot, only the USA makes decent software in your view.

Oh and that you'll endlessly insult someone for calling you on it.

Endlessly insult? Look in the mirror. I simply called you on your demonstrated lack of knowledge of IT security. Was the "I feel lucky" in Google too difficult for you?
