…people like Zatoichi are going to be here to oppose our values about software and intellectual property…

I’d be very interested in hearing you detail the “values about software and intellectual property” (doesn’t the FSF demand that you not use that term…?) that you imagine I oppose.

He’s not complaining about me, he’s complaining about someone who clearly identified himself, right up front, as working for Microsoft. It was a completely frivolous complaint on Roy’s part.

And, based on the complete lack of response, no one here has “heard an opposing argument” yet. When Roy is backed into a corner by questions he can’t answer, he simply posts four more stories to try to push the “opposing argument” off the front page.

Complaining to the FTC about the posts here is far too thin skinned. You just have to accept people like Zatoichi are going to be here to oppose our values about software and intellectual property, Roy. Not only do they add spice to the boycottnovell website, but on those rare occasions we they make good point, they help us refine our argument against them! I’m no mindless of advocate of “tolerance”, but hearing opposing arguments is good for people.

In other words, the FTC is taking no action whatsoever on your bogus complaint.
