schestowitz | Feedback Re comment on 2nd podcast | Nov 10 05:45 |
---|---|---|
schestowitz | > I have to say that I was surprised by some comments that I heard you say on your 2nd podcast. If I understood correctly, you seemed to be defending the right of companies to "go after" those who buy their products and then make modifications to them. You continued by saying that the people who make the modifications might do something harmful. Did I understand correctly? If so, then I only agree as far as the following: | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | if the people who modify the product do something harmful, then by all means, they should be held responsible for what they have done. | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | > On the other hand, what if they actually make an improvement? I am thinking of a particular case of a multi-media card which came with crippled drivers for certain versions of Windows. Some hacker (in Brasil, I believe) reverse engineered the uncrippled driver and allowed full functionality for all versions of Windows. At first, the company tolerated it but then changed their mind and decided to condemn what the hacker | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | had done. After all, according to them, they made a "business decision" to make crippled drivers and "it is their absolute right to do so." In a sense, they are claiming "intellectual property" and that they are entitled to increase their profits however they wish. Do I understand correctly that you are defending this company and their so-called entitlement to make a profit by restraint of knowledge and sharing? I hope my | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | understanding is wrong! | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | .. | Nov 10 05:46 |
schestowitz | I wrote about it a lot of the time and slammed Creative. On the show, for the heck of it, I tried to present the company's point of view and play devil's advocate. I detest Creative for what they did. I'm surprises it seemed like I was really defending Creative. | Nov 10 05:46 |
