The Latest Anti-RMS Coup Attempt Targets the GNU Project (Because the FSF Coup Has Clearly Failed) by Infringing and Disregarding Trademark Conventions

Video download link



Summary: A fake "GNU" (not the original GNU, just riding the coattails of the name "GNU") is trying to find/gain traction and we must oppose it because it's an extension of the very same coup attempt (same plotters) that manufactured a whole bunch of libel to incite people and blackmail the Free Software Foundation (FSF)

Trademark law is not a bad thing and it is not something that Richard Stallman (RMS) opposes. In fact, the FSF has complained to the FSFE about their misleading name and insisted that it should be renamed. Other leaks have demonstrated what FSFE really stands for (not just literally but also in practice). It takes money from Microsoft and Google.



"These people aren't trying to promote freedom and kindness. They just try to demote the founder and exclude him. How very kind of them..."At the moment there is something hijacking the name "GNU". But it's not GNU. It's actually an attack on GNU. It's also an attack on the founder of GNU and the current project leader of the GNU Project.

The video above does not mention the name of this "new GNU" or the perpetrators (previously we saw many IBM/Red Hat employees). It does, however, warn about the motivations. These people aren't trying to promote freedom and kindness. They just try to demote the founder and exclude him. How very kind of them...
