I don't. One is doing business and promoting its product. Quite natural. You'd 
do the same. It doesn't matter if you think that your product confirms to 
morality or whatever. No one's ever wrong. POV.

Anyway, the other party however IS to be blamed for not making a proper 
decision that affects quite a lot of people. Again, they have the choice of 
rejecting the proposal.

Btw, you left a question unanswered.

POV. They might and they might not. Apparently, in your point of view software 
freedom is more important than human lives.

Nope. You ignore the POVs. See below.

Technically, the Jews have done quite a few `wrong' things in the past as 
well.

Anyway, try telling someone helped by Gate's money that his life matters less 
than software freedom.

Also, try telling the xemacs developers that RMS is to be worshipped.

``From my point of view the Jedi are evil!''

``Well then you are lost!''

Pity. It was no use in the end. A simple POV quoted above shouted ``I need 
him!!'' and the rest, as they say, is history.

POVs can make a difference ;)

P.S. We're talking philosophy now! YAAY!
