Thanks.  I haven't read the book yet, but I will now :)



Here he draws the difference about Free Culture, ie: when ppl sit
around a camp fire and sing songs, tell stories... and Commercial
Culture, where someone records those content, prepare it into some
media and sells it. In the days of physical media and distribuition
(paper, CDs) this demarcation is quite clear. As the technology
changes, from physical to electronic (Radio, TV) these 'media'
companies fought to maintain their own interests and helped push for
even stronger copyright laws... But you still required large resources
or relied on the media companies to create cultural content. And the
media company 'controlled' the technologies and even suppressed
technology that could threaten their monopolies.

With the internet, it became possible and even easy for ordinary
persons to create and distribute content, and resulted in a burst of
creativity... and this threatened the media companies! And they will
do what they can to control the technology and suppress 'independent'
content creators.

Another point that was brought up was that new creative (cultural)
works, historically, was always based on prior work - a new piece. of
music being based on an earlier work... but by having too strong
copyright laws, this would not be possible and hence may suppress
creativity. ie: the MPAA could sue you if you used 'commercial'
soundtrack on a video you shot and put on YouTube.

Yes piracy is bad because it deprives artist off earnings, and
discourages them from producing more content. But to have strong
copy-right laws to protect the interests of media companies is a not a
solution either.
I'd say it's the media companies that are depriving the artists of 
earnings.  The media companies take ownership of the art that they 
didn't create, then they take most of the money and leave the artist 
with only a very small percentage.


It's a broken, outdated business model.  Without it, the artists will 
still create art and earn money.  Piracy only deprives media companies 
of earnings, not artists.

Thank you Boh Yap for making a very important point.  Copyright law is
completely broken because commercial organizations such as MPAA and RIAA
have too much influence over lawmakers.  Their mission is to make as much
money as possible and they influence lawmakers to make laws that support

We might have a problem in Malaysia with illegal software, music, videos,

That's a good point that I often forget.  I focus on moral implications that
directly affect my community or me as an individual, but this also affects
national economy, community, and development.  A company that otherwise
might invest in Malaysia may decide not to because of this list.

I agree that we need to promote the benefits of FLOSS, but I hesitate to
suggest that piracy, as the corporations have defined it, is *evil*.  It *is
* illegal and endorsing or encouraging illegal activities can hurt us on
many levels even if those laws could be considered unjust.

In public venues, I often try to use the negative propaganda like this list
as a tool.  Small companies often do pick pirated software first.  Then they
are faced with either worrying about getting caught or paying too-high
prices to get licensed.  I discuss that scenario, then present FLOSS as the
solution.

Absolutely not.  The conditions of the licenses that cover (almost?) all
Linux distributions explicitly allow copying and distributing the software.
However, if the software is represented as something else, they're probably
doing something immoral, if not illegal.

>From several years ago, I remember reading about a local (here in KK)
company that was putting a different name on a standard OpenOffice.org

shady, but I'm not sure how it would have been handled in a court.  I
couldn't find any information about it just now, though.

Why not?  If I host an MP3 file containing a copyrighted song on my website,
the company that owns the rights to the song will probably try to have my
site taken down.

In this context, the term "piracy" was rhetoric used by to make people who
share seem evil.  It doesn't really mean anything.  It's more or less
slander.

That was quite some years back, i am sure before OSCC's time. Someone
woke up abit by now. But still long way to go. FOSS is regarded as
risky, anarchy as in wikileaks and Tahrir Square. If Govt pun tak caya
sama orang kito... oh i forgot, show them the numbers first...

For our OSS friends in Indonesia... Report for Indonesia directly
mention about OSS,

http://www.iipa.com/rbc/2010/2010SPEC301INDONESIA.pdf

"which threatens to create additional trade barriers and deny fair and
equitable market access to software companies."

and OSS in Malaysia, tiada taring lagi.. Report do not mention
about it. So more work to us as community.
