I think it’s a matter of priorities and Google is not the fiercest enemy right now. I consider Oracle to be a bigger parasite because it harms companies that actually make the very same GNU/Linux which it uses as a ‘freerider’.

Anyway, as long as Microsoft explicitly threatens to harm Free software, it’s a major target. SaaS will be the next major hurdle when/if most native applications are phased out, virtualisation and clouds become more prevalent, and companies exploit GPL loopholes that AGPL closes.

I personally want to see Wikia succeeding.

Heck even Google adsense / adwords is patented pro. software///

Google has built the biggest closed patented propr. web for itself

That’s why we should treat AGPL(v3) as though it is GPLv4 and encourage developers to adopt it.

using Google = Evil !!
