| schestowitz | To wit: "what drives... is a world-wide consensus amongst the chiefs of the multi-national corporate community as to what's best for my corporation." is NOT an answer of "all of the politics of ANY country," precisely because multi-national corporations are NOT true "citizens" of ANY country. | Feb 08 21:45 |

| schestowitz | Further, there is zero credible logic int he attempted "equalization" of "The shareholder and the taxpayer are one and the same aren't they?" This is profound LACK of understanding of the dynamics of Big Corp. | Feb 08 21:45 |

This means that a translation of the latter piece, whose headline resembles something that I said some months ago, would be useful.

| schestowitz | Software patents are part of a broader issue which I call patent maximalism and includes GMO monopolies, artificially high pricing on living-saving medicine (where research is funded by taxpayers) and other such issues that brought me to this kind of campaigning in the first place. | Feb 09 16:52 |

| schestowitz | @ Blogger shaking his head: it seems that in practice everything is within Mr. Battistelli’s competence. It is unlimited and unfettered, as far as we can see. | Feb 09 17:24 |
| schestowitz | @ confused cat: in practice, the expression ”beyond his mandate” is a mere descriptor – it has absolutely no consequences. | Feb 09 17:24 |

| schestowitz | There is very little that can be done about it, unless SMEs were to join together in cooperative oppositions and court actions to invalidate patents on a regular basis. The chances are slim, because their pre-occupations normally lie elsewhere. Finance, for instance. And we have a very, very bad example from the small software developers: they have preferred to cry “Fire”, acting as victims, trying to influence politicians, rather | Feb 09 17:24 |
| schestowitz | than acting in concord and filing well-phrased and well-documented oppositions to the innumerable unpatentable software inventions. At least the Greens filed oppositions to biotechnology patents. But the aloof software developers, never. They have never realised that politicians cannot be bothered with minutiae. | Feb 09 17:24 |

| schestowitz | Market share is not a valid argument as it's an appeal to majority which is a fallacious argument. | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | Since you seem to have came to a conclusion based on faulty reasoning; I'm not even going to address the anti-trust issues that both companies have done to get to their place now. | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | Market share is so a valid argument especially when every single proponent of linux does their best to crap on the market leaders and the principles they used to get there. | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | When one thing is free and available to the end users and the other thing is 100-1000 but holds the majority of the market, then there are issues with the free thing. | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | Anti-trust you shouldn't bring up, because while that was in play, that was ages ago. The things holding back the free options are still present and they come from within, not from Microsoft. Dell is shipping Linux laptops so are a few other companies, they are not being bought by the general end user because they don't offer actual solutions for the end user. | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | Adobe's anti trust suit was an employee-employer matter in which all of the top companies were involved in. | Feb 11 12:00 |

| schestowitz | "Well, I already know that I cannot reason with you as a clearly fallacious argument is valid in your mind.' | Feb 11 12:00 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | When you have a group of people saying take it for free and the other group saying give us your money for this better thing and the free group seeing 1/100 of the uptake of the paid group, there is an issue with the free group's offerings. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | When a large group of the paid uptakers gives the free group a shot on their next go around but then decides to go back to the paid group on the third round, the free group is the one making an inferior offer. The uptake for the paid group may feel they were strong armed into the uptake the first time, but on the 3rd round they went back willingly. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Wasting 10 hours with the free product trying to do what you do in one hour with the paid product, makes the free product more costly. Most people do not want to sit around figuring out how a program works, they want it set and ready to go for them to do their task and get on with the rest of their day. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | If you want a small business to uptake Linux you show them something like ClearOs(rarely done by Linux fantards), you show them a RHEL command line and they tell you to get lost while they go back to their $900/instance point and click IIS or if they are really small they just turn it on one of their existing desktop machines. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Not really; you just proved why your argument is fallacious; the free group lacks advertising and monetization; which just because the free group lacks this resource doesn't mean it's bad. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | But, that would be me assuming by your anonymous market share statistics fallacy which is yet another fallacy in your reasoning. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Besides, Linux is the #1 server, #1 supercomputer, and #1 phone kernel by usage. Which proves that your fallacious argument on market share is invalid. | Feb 11 12:01 |

| schestowitz | My argument is not fallacious at all you just keep ignoring the END USERS WHO MAKE UP THE MAJORITY OF THE MARKET. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Take 999/1000 paid Photoshop owners, give them GIMP and see if they stay on GIMP or laugh at you and go back to a product that actually suits their needs and time constraints. They will throw money at Adobe . | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Servers yes but End Users don't care about what serves a website, only that they see the website or that they can post to their blog. Also that is public facing web servers. I know non-profits who have more MS licenses than entire datacenters. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | How many end users are there on super computers? Developers and scientists only and most of them will not touch anything on it past their data. They won't be programming them, setting them up , that was the implementing developers jobs and they did a great one. Time on them is not free and someone is profiting. | Feb 11 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Majority of end users of phones don't care what kernel their phones are running or even aware of it, good developers made sure of that and then they monetized it. | Feb 11 12:01 |

| schestowitz | "When you come with an ideological argument and ignore the way things are done by those who didn't drink the cool aid, of course facts of reality are fallacious. Not one of my factual arguments has been shot down as none of them have been put up against something other than ideology." | Feb 11 12:01 |

| schestowitz | That you think a program being free while taking up more of the user's time is somehow serving their needs means you drank the cool aid. | Feb 11 12:01 |

You started chiming in after I pointed out the bullshit claim of a bad license just because FSF doesn't like it. From that point on it was clear everything you said was based on ideology. Your post history of copyleft/nonGPL bad on multiple issues tonight just proves my point that you are not looking at reality rather ideology. I wasn't going to | Feb 11 12:02 |

| schestowitz | To wit: "what drives... is a world-wide consensus amongst the chiefs of the multi-national corporate community as to what's best for my corporation." is NOT an answer of "all of the politics of ANY country," precisely because multi-national corporations are NOT true "citizens" of ANY country. | Feb 08 21:45 |

| schestowitz | This is practically the closest that MaxDrei has ever come to one of my well-discussed positions, even if I think he still does not grasp the bigger picture completely (as evidenced by his incorrect takeaway of "I venture to suggest it is all of them"). | Feb 08 21:45 |
| schestowitz | Further, there is zero credible logic int he attempted "equalization" of "The shareholder and the taxpayer are one and the same aren't they?" This is profound LACK of understanding of the dynamics of Big Corp. | Feb 08 21:45 |
| schestowitz | Yes, there is indeed "truth" to MaxDreis's "Just as much of what we read in the media is spoon-fed to the journalists by corporate scriveners, so too is the text of statutes drafted and paid for by the corporations. Democratic politicians are terrified of the power of Big Corp to withdraw co-operation and take its job opportunities elsewhere," so at least some observations are on the right path. But to think that modern warfare needs old- | Feb 08 21:45 |

| schestowitz | @ Blogger shaking his head: it seems that in practice everything is within Mr. Battistelli’s competence. It is unlimited and unfettered, as far as we can see. | Feb 09 17:24 |
| schestowitz | @ confused cat: in practice, the expression ”beyond his mandate” is a mere descriptor – it has absolutely no consequences. | Feb 09 17:24 |

| schestowitz | There is very little that can be done about it, unless SMEs were to join together in cooperative oppositions and court actions to invalidate patents on a regular basis. The chances are slim, because their pre-occupations normally lie elsewhere. Finance, for instance. And we have a very, very bad example from the small software developers: they have preferred to cry “Fire”, acting as victims, trying to influence politicians, rather | Feb 09 17:24 |
| schestowitz | than acting in concord and filing well-phrased and well-documented oppositions to the innumerable unpatentable software inventions.

| schestowitz | "But microsoft isn't evil anymore, they got a new ceo! Right?" | Feb 10 00:26 |
| schestowitz | LOL | Feb 10 00:26 |
| schestowitz | "They are, and have been for decades. MS isn't a company you start to hate at first glance, but it's a company you love to hate for real and profound reasons time and time again." | Feb 10 00:27 |
| schestowitz | MS apologists again | Feb 10 00:27 |
| schestowitz | " | Feb 10 00:27 |
| schestowitz | I mean, the problem isn't that Microdollaroft are dickheads, the problem is that businesses are amoral | Feb 10 00:27 |
| schestowitz | The problem is people, like you I suspect, are prefectly OK with companies being "amoral" when in reality while a company may have no morality the people running the company do and should be held to account for their actions | Feb 10 00:27 |
| schestowitz | the big problem in society is this idea that "its just business" like that explains away and justify's all manner of bad acts simply because "its just business". That is a bullshit way of looking at the world | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | So no "Microsoft" is not a dick, the Managers, Executives and Lawyers that make the the group commonly known as Microsoft are the dicks and should be called out as such. A simple way to state that is simply using the company name in place of a long list of individuals, that after all is the purpose of a company in the first place | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | All this opinion piece, and most of the other ones I've read, do is get angry at Microsoft for exercising its rights. | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | One, I do not classify a patent or copyright as a right. that is a government granted privilege, | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | Further Even if it was a right, just because you have a right do something does not mean you should be free from criticism for doing it. For Example it is with in Reddits right to censor "hate speech", but it is also with in my right to call them censors douches for doing so | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | If in America, in most places it is with in your rights to walk down the street with a rifle, but I am also with in my right to call that person a fucking moron for doing so. | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | A right does not free you from criticism, That is the entire basis for the social concept of boycotts. | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | If a law's broken you change the law, | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | Yea good luck with that, it is about to become a international treaty that can never be changed (TPP) | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | you don't get angry at people for using it. | Feb 10 00:28 |
| schestowitz | Yes you should, simply because something is legal does not make it right, ethical or moral, and the reverse is also true, just because something is illegal does not make it wrong, unethical or immoral | Feb 10 00:28 |
