Re: [Trisquel-users] Nvidia restriction for latest drivers

[onpon4]

Intentionally crippling is bad, but these drivers are proprietary anyway, so  
they shouldn't be used in the first place. At the same time, if people get  
angry that they are being intentionally crippled, that could get "open  
source" proponents to work harder towards getting fully free drivers and  
firmware.

The worst case scenario is that Nvidia and AMD get pressured into improving  
the proprietary drivers and firmware rather than supplying free ones. So the  
worst case, in terms of freedom, is no change.
