Re: [Trisquel-users] How to remove JPEG, MPEG, GIF, DOC and other unwanted patented software?

Then remove the GUI. I don't care; it's your life. But if you're going to be  
this absurdly paranoid, maybe you should just not use a computer at all.  
There are legitimate obstacles to liberty in computing we have to deal with,  
like the fact that all modern x86 CPUs refuse to even boot without  
proprietary software, and here you are moaning about imagined risks from  
patents that are not applicable, expired, not an imminent threat, or even  
purely hypothetical.
