Summary: Apple continues to show its dangerous side
-
Rémi Denis-Courmont is being censored for his action against Apple’s GPL Violation. The site planet.videolan.org was taken down and his RSS feed was removed. For what? Defending freedom. It appears there are apply fanboys pulling the strings.

No, not the year, the book. Steve Jobs wants to control all IT:
* What you can read
* What you can buy
* Who can do business

UPDATE If that’s not enough, HyperMac Becomes HyperJuice…, a company recycling old Mac parts to produce power-supplies for Macs has been forced to desist and to change its name. Apple is against motherhood and recycling too. Greed and egomania come to mind. Why does anyone in their right mind do business with Apple?
