[ilugd] ideas taking over the world vs zombies taking over the world
I was just reading http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8206280.stm Two things struck me about the above article on bbc news. 1. The professor's name is a bit of a sanitization problem that reminds me of http://xkcd.com/327/ 2. In the article, the ability of ideas to spread and take over the world in real life is explained as being comparable to the ability of zombies to spread and take over the world in movies. Ironically, in real life there is a battle between the GPL spreading freedom and security, and the zombie machines running on MS systems that go around spreading spam and creatng more zombies on the net.

Re: [ilugd] Court bans Microsoft from selling Word in US
Mehul Ved writes: > Where is the OT tag? I don't see anything related to linux or open > source in this post? One needs to post this just to bash microsoft? True. But it isn't really MS bashing. It is more of a bitter laugh over how pushing something evil as a policy can turn back and hurt you. Even if looks like it will favour the pusher at the time. To go off topic, you'd have to do something like post a bitter laugh over how the ISI pushed something evil like terrorism as a policy and ended up close to destroying Pakistan, even though it looked like a good idea at the time. And then start ranting about how MS is a terrorist organisation that hates our freedom etc. But the original poster was pretty much on topic, since MS is using patents as a weapon against linux. It was MS, after all, that has famously claimed (in a classic FUD attack) that the linux kernel infringed on 235 patents. While linux is protected from this kind of crap from MS, the patent quagmire is a danger to free software, and to innovation generally. So I'd say it is of interest to us. As much as we'd like to stay out of these issues, MS won't let you. So we should be aware of these.

[ilugd] the freedom to share information
Rather a troll of a story here: http://news.slashdot.org/story/09/08/12/018255/Leaving-the-GPL-Behind?art_pos=2 and the subsequent discussion stinks a bit, because there's a lot of false logic, ad hominem attacks and assumptions mixed in (it's slashdot discussing RMS after all). But one of the most interesting informative posts buried under more highly moderated crap, IMHO, was: ###begin quote### Re:Control freak (Score:3, Interesting) by Squiggle (8721) on Wednesday August 12, @01:07AM (#29033741) RMS actually makes a distinction between different types of information and how free it needs to be. At one of his talks he discussed 3 categories: 1) works of practical use (educational materials, software tools, etc): - should be free (GPL) 2) works of testimony (what people experienced or believe): - republishing with modification is misrepresentation, - commercial use covered by existing copyright 3) works of art and entertainment: - commercial use requires permission, personal use is fine His position is nuanced, not stupid. I actually think the distinction is too difficult to make and it is best to error on the side of freedom, but there are certainly some tricky "moral rights" or artistic integrity issues for categories 2 and 3 with GPL-style freedom. ###end quote### PJ lugdelhi dot to dot peejay at spamgourmet dot com ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

Thanks Saurabh, an interesting read. My perspective on this: There have been enough instances in the past of government accumulating powers that can be abused. The way such power is abused is generally: shoot first, let the person who is shot clean up the mess. Obviously pretty unfair. The best way of dealing with such abuse is to make government truly accountable for its actions. Design a process that is a millstone that fits around the neck of each official that abuses such power. The RTI is one such millstone (unfortunately accruing cruft to curb its power, but still a shining example of something that really helped). Clauses such as 69A/B may need to have an accountability/millstone provision added (if RTI isn't enough). Governance in India fails regularly because the people it affects aren't aware of the abuse of law failure path. This partly due to huge currents of inertia in culture and neglect of education. Fighting against the current with protests is a valuable way of making India a better place.
