ES: €¿Qué ha Pasado con The Guardian?

(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Tradicionalmente, una publicación progresista con coraje, The Guardian se ha suavizado después de recibir el dinero de Bill Gates, y ahora ofrece una plataforma para el lobby de las patentes de software.

"Un abogado de patentes argumenta a favor de las las leyes de patentes de software al estilo EE.UU. en Gran Bretaña", advierte Satipera acerca de este nuevo artículo[http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/blog/2011/may/27/apps-development-uk-intellectual-property-patents-law]. "De todos modos son las mismas viejas reclamaciones falsas, buenas sólo para los abogados de patentes", continúa. €¿Qué piensa el financiado por la Fundación Gates[http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Gates_Foundation_Critique] -The Guardián- cuando recurre a la publicación de tales opiniones impopulares recientemente? La semana pasada se publicó un artículo de un grupo de presión en contra de los estándares abiertos[http://techrights.org/2011/05/24/lawrence-kogan-for-swpats-in-std/] (o de las patente-agravados) y no hace mucho tiempo que también le dio una plataforma a Microsoft Florian, cuya agenda es similar -la misma diriamos-. Se le permitió escribir artículos enteros allí. €¿Dónde está la crítica a los monopolios de Patentes de Gates? Parece haber desaparecido cuando Gates les dió algo de dinero para guardar silencio y auto-censurarse. The Guardian se convirtió en un guardián de la clase dominante en lugar de prensa de vigilancia cuando aceptó el dinero [1[http://techrights.org/2010/09/21/purchasing-main-events-for-pr/], 2[http://techrights.org/2010/10/01/self-promotional-and-outright-lobbying/], 3[http://techrights.org/2010/10/01/self-promotional-and-outright-lobbying/]] (que podría haberlo rechazado con cortesía, pero no lo hizo), lo que probablemente lo hizo parte de la prensa corporativa. €¿Acepta también dinero de BP?



Comentario Importante de Mr.NeedSunlight:

Inquietante, pero esto funciona para silenciar a los medios de comunicación de esa manera. PBS y NPR en los EE.UU. han sido mínimos en temas de tecnología desde que aceptaron ser "financiados" por la Fundación Gates.
