google chrome "big brother"
Google Chrome Terms of Service(Google Chrome executable), BSD (source code and Chromium executable except chromium 5 beta),BSD License with proprietary parts (source code and chromium 5 beta executable, as it integrates Adobe Flash Player 10.1[1])[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome in my interpretation, this means Google Chrome is fully open-source, only the flash player has proprietary codes. am i right, or i'm missing something? i would be happy if someone could correct me. thank you!! *ps.: because "they" say google is the "big brother"

In regards with the "big brother" tag (OTOH, who are "they"?), I think is due to the fact Google's eye is almost everywhere, but has nothing to do with their software licenses.

After all that, Chromium is not in Lenny, wheter main or backports, and I am stuck (by choice, of course) in Lenny until Trinity matures, So I installed Chrome. I don't much like doing that, but I want to look at Chrome/Chromium. Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
