ES: La Guerra de Microsoft Contra Linux Ahora Es Sobre las Patentes de Software

Chain against green



(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Microsoft hace Velocity Micro pagar a Microsoft - no Google - por dispositivos basados en Linux Android

La extorsión en contra de Android tiene un laberinto de acuerdos de confidencialidad. Gracias a Barnes and Noble sabemos lo feo que es[http://techrights.org/2011/04/27/bn-and-changing-the-patent-system/]. No hay acuerdo amistoso, hay CHANTAJE SISTEMATICO [1[http://techrights.org/2007/06/08/shuttleworth-on-racketeering/], 2[http://techrights.org/2009/07/17/racketeering-melco-microsoft/], 3[http://techrights.org/2009/12/29/microsoft-extortion-software-patents/], 4[http://techrights.org/2009/07/24/red-hat-on-microsoft-two-face/], 5[http://techrights.org/2009/09/08/staples-employees-anti-linux/], 6[http://techrights.org/2009/07/01/patent-racketeering-myhrvold/], 7[http://techrights.org/2008/02/22/open-for-patents/]]. Sólo unos pocos días Microsoft anunció un acuerdo de extorsión contra Android y ahora viene otro[http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2011/jun11/06-29VelocityMicroPR.mspx] con una gran cantidad de las mismas mentiras (temas de conversación para hacer que parezca un acuerdo amistoso):



El acuerdo de patentes es otro ejemplo del importante papel que la propiedad intelectual (IP) desempeña en asegurar un ambiente sano y vibrante ecosistema de TI.


No, es la extorsión, y no debería ser legal. Microsoft ha claramente agotar los medios para competir con Linux, por lo que está presionando por las patentes de software en todas partes[http://techrights.org/2011/06/29/microsoft-lobbyists-for-swpats-eu/] (Microsoft Florian está seguro en su nómina, directa o indirectamente) y está atacando a Linux en todo momento a puerta cerrada, tratando de hacerlo más caro y también la vaca de efectivo de Microsoft. El co-fundador de Microsoft, Bill Gates juega juegos similares con las patentes[http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Gates_Foundation_Critique] (en alimentos y medicinas, por ejemplo) y esto tiene que parar. Microsoft es una empresa muy peligrosa, no un chivo expiatorio.
