| schestowitz__ | Hi Mark, | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Thanks for the additional information. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Gates Foundation is accountable mostly to itself, AFAIK. Over the years I saw many groups, including former partners, complaining about allocation of funds. This is documented by the press, too. In many cases, the funds disguise interest in patents and monopolisation of so-called solutions for the crowd Gates does not understand (can the richest person from the richest background since childhood really speak out for the poor and | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | grasp their woes?). In some cases, the Gates Foundation claims "transparency" and releases face-saving reports when partners (or former partners) complain. For this too I can provide lots of references as I covered it at the time. I no longer have time to keep up with Gates, but last I saw he kept looking for ways to lobby politicians to pass taxpayers money to his pet projects, including GMO and GSK-connected patent-boosting | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | investments/clinical trials on poor people. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Anyway, accountability assumes that there is separation between the corporate side and the federal side, and that one can monitor the other. But the boundaries have been blurred and there is now a marriage of tax-exempt 'charity', politics, and industrial partners. I fear that the only way to fight back is to inform civil rights groups and inform the public. Over the years I found that more and more people recognise the Gates | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Foundation for what it really is. It doesn't get a free pass. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | If you want to shed light on this anonymously, without revealing your identity, the product, and company names, that would probably be possible. As you did not encrypt your messages or used a remailer, you can assume the intel' community is already aware of this communication, but that does not automatically extend to the private sector. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | I am eager to shed light on this without exposing any identity. I have done this dozens of times over the years and never caused any retribution/trouble my sources. It is up to you how you want to deal with the situation, but all I can say at this stage is, the system has been set up in such a way that there is no credible body to report this to. A lot of institutions/non-profits blindly assume benevolence on the part of those who | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | fund them*. The only time I see foundations being held accountable is when there's real journalism, such as what LA Times did 7 years ago. | Apr 05 01:52 |

| schestowitz__ | Hi Mark, | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Thanks for the additional information. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Gates Foundation is accountable mostly to itself, AFAIK. Over the years I saw many groups, including former partners, complaining about allocation of funds. This is documented by the press, too. In many cases, the funds disguise interest in patents and monopolisation of so-called solutions for the crowd Gates does not understand (can the richest person from the richest background since childhood really speak out for the poor and | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | grasp their woes?). In some cases, the Gates Foundation claims "transparency" and releases face-saving reports when partners (or former partners) complain. For this too I can provide lots of references as I covered it at the time. I no longer have time to keep up with Gates, but last I saw he kept looking for ways to lobby politicians to pass taxpayers money to his pet projects, including GMO and GSK-connected patent-boosting | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | investments/clinical trials on poor people. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Anyway, accountability assumes that there is separation between the corporate side and the federal side, and that one can monitor the other. But the boundaries have been blurred and there is now a marriage of tax-exempt 'charity', politics, and industrial partners. I fear that the only way to fight back is to inform civil rights groups and inform the public. Over the years I found that more and more people recognise the Gates | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Foundation for what it really is. It doesn't get a free pass. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | If you want to shed light on this anonymously, without revealing your identity, the product, and company names, that would probably be possible. As you did not encrypt your messages or used a remailer, you can assume the intel' community is already aware of this communication, but that does not automatically extend to the private sector. | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | I am eager to shed light on this without exposing any identity. I have done this dozens of times over the years and never caused any retribution/trouble my sources. It is up to you how you want to deal with the situation, but all I can say at this stage is, the system has been set up in such a way that there is no credible body to report this to. A lot of institutions/non-profits blindly assume benevolence on the part of those who | Apr 05 01:52 |
| schestowitz__ | fund them*. The only time I see foundations being held accountable is when there's real journalism, such as what LA Times did 7 years ago. | Apr 05 01:52 |

| schestowitz__ | "I don't get that craze of selfies. What friends are trying to impress if they not even have one to take the picture?" | Apr 05 04:36 |

| schestowitz__ | Terminal Server Client is an older gnome application for RDP, VNC, XDMCP and ICA. RDP works with Windows XP, so you can export it's display to a modern window manager which is much easier than Microsoft's clumsy switching mechanisms. There is newer client but it was not as reliable when I tried it last. | Apr 05 19:38 |
| schestowitz__ | Between tsclient and SAMBA, you can pretty cleanly separate the non free computing that others might impose on you. Bring your laptop to work, you tuck their Windows box under your desk and use it's screen as a second monitor for your laptop. Open up a 1024x768 tsclient on an out of the way virtual desktop as required for whatever you might need windows for, but organize all your work on your reliable gnu/linux laptop. | Apr 05 19:38 |
