Comments on: Gates Foundation Hires More Advertising Agencies to Spin its Work in the Press; Gates Grantees Are Complaining, Finds Survey http://techrights.org/2010/06/21/more-pr-muscle-for-gates/ Free Software Sentry – watching and reporting maneuvers of those threatened by software freedom Fri, 25 Nov 2016 09:41:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.9.14 By: Dr. Roy Schestowitz http://techrights.org/2010/06/21/more-pr-muscle-for-gates/comment-page-1/#comment-92313 Tue, 22 Jun 2010 18:16:15 +0000 http://techrights.org/?p=33838#comment-92313 The blog posts mostly deal with software (there’s more in the daily links, including other monopolies that Gates and Allen invest in) and taken within context, throughout their lifetimes the ‘Microsoft people’ (Gates, Myhrvold, Silverberg…) did a lot of damage to society compared to other software companies. IBM also has its pool of unethical people, e.g. Marshall Phelps, Bill Hilf, Jeff Jaffe, Ron Hovsepian…

It is difficult to imagine how Mr Gates could be more evil than my conception of evil personified but that is only because I’m too busy trying to do good things for people and earn a living.

Techrights has documented many complaints of the foundation people perverting science and pushing political goals to promote “IP” politics that enslave the recipient and profit Gate’s investments in Microsoft, Walmart, tobacco, big oil, big phama and big agra which includes GMOs. The business of these big companies is as evil as their owners are callous and the more noble the cause they try to usurp to fool the public, the more odious their crimes are. A man with Mr. Gate’s record should not be using his money to purchase newspapers and PR advice, instead he should throw open the doors beyond and above the usual scrutiny demanded of charity. The US IRS should demand more as well.

No further investigation is required for real charity to avoid the B&M Gates Foundation. Mr. Gates’ continued attacks on the sharing of knowledge is enough to disgrace anyone associated with him. Gates has argued that copyright law is adequate justification for censorship in Communist China. It should come as no surprise that his foundation is as unresponsive, corrupt and bullying as the People’s Republic. Mr. Gates has done more than his fair share of damage to the free flow of information in the world and should be shunned. Paywalls, intellectual monopolies and all the other stuff promoted by Gates result in ignorance, poverty and death.
