ES: Mientras los Directivos de Microsoft Siguen Huyendo, Microsoft Ataca Jugadores Pequeños Que Ofrecen Linux (Actualizado)

Steam Ballmer



(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Microsoft pierde una pizca de dignidad restante cuando Steve Ballmer grita en el escenario (en medio de llamados para su despido) y también tiene sus hombres que gritan contra las empresas que venden Linux, tratando de obtener dinero de ellos para evitar un juicio (probablemente una violación de la Ley RICO por chantaje sistematizado)

MIENTRAS ya no seguimos la salida de muchos directivos de Microsoft[http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Microsoft_-_Major_Departure] (tal vez pronto nos pondremos al dia), un lector nos ha dicho acerca de otro jefe de Microsoft abandona el barco[http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/29/conrad_bayer_departs_from_microsoft/]:



El gerente general de Microsoft de su problemática unidad de identidad y acceso ha dejado la empresa, el Register se ha enterado.

Hemos estado presionando a los proveedores de software ya que Kim Cameron renunció a su puesto en Redmond en mayo para saber qué cambios estaban en marcha dentro del grupo.


"De acuerdo a los informes en el Seattle Times", dice The Register[http://techrights.org/2011/06/30/msft-trying-to-extort-money/Ballmer%20leaves%20investors%20speechless%20in%20Seattle], "Ballmer CEO de Microsoft gritó en una audiencia cautiva que asisten a una fiesta cívica en el Club Rotario de la ciudad ayer." Él está gritando para defender su posición como CEO, mientras que sus matones compañeros también están gritando - metafóricamente hablando - a las empresas que están vendiendo Linux. De acuerdo con los chacales de Microsoft[http://www.zdnet.com/blog/microsoft/yet-another-android-vendor-pays-microsoft-patent-royalties/9859], Microsoft continúa con las extorsiones de patentes , pero se centra sólo en las pequeñas empresas o empresas cuyo uso de Linux es apenas conocido (por lo tanto ningún incentivo para llevar este asunto a la sala del tribunal). Microsoft Nick dice que "las esquinas Microsoft otro fabricante Android en materia de patentes[http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/Microsoft-makes-deal-with-Velocity-Micro/?kc=rss]", correctamente (para variar) que muestra que no hay nada amigable, a diferencia de la pelusa orwelliana del Microsoft comunicado de prensa[http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2011/jun11/06-29VelocityMicroPR.mspx] que el cabildero de Microsoft, Microsoft Florian enlaza (estas personas en general, promueven las Relaciones Públicas de Microsoft PR como fuente principal al anunciar la extorsión en contra de Linux, prestando atención a los comunicados de prensa de Microsoft en lugar de tratar de desafiar las pretensiones en ella). Al igual que General Dynamics Itronix [1[http://techrights.org/2011/06/29/general-dynamics-itronix-swpats-deal_es/], 2[http://techrights.org/2011/06/29/extortion-and-law/]], Velocity Micro acaba de ser extorsionado tambíen[http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Microsoft-does-second-Android-patent-deal-in-a-week-1270343.html]. El cabildero, Microsoft Florian, escribió hoy que "Android no es ni" libre "como en" cerveza "ni" libre "como en" libertad de expresión".", Steve Ballmer dijo lo mismo[http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/03/android-isnt-free/] y Florian todavía se niega a responder a la pregunta acerca de si Microsoft le paga un salario (es casi seguro que él es pagado por ellos, al menos indirectamente). Este tipo de odio de Linux se muestro aquí antes, incluyendo su tirada de barro a Red Hat. El cabildeo es importante para Microsoft, como medio para cambiar la percepción del público (Florian bombardea a los periodistas con correo masivo[http://techrights.org/2011/04/19/how-mobbyists-operate_es/], su uso como soporte de Microsoft FUD). Algunos de los ingresos de Microsoft, ahora llegan de su sanguijuela alter-ego, Microsoft Licensing, GP (MSLI) y de los de esa talla. Puede ser que sea la única división restante un día.

Microsoft se está derrumbando como una empresa prácticante y lo único que queda para ella es la práctica (largo plazo) del litigio, lo que inevitablemente lo ha hecho un troll de patentes. Seguimos viendo un poco más de litigio con las patentes de software[http://www.leagle.com/xmlResult.aspx?xmldoc=In%20FCO%2020110602163.xml&docbase=CSLWAR3-2007-CURR], que tiene una fuerte correlación con los trolls de patentes. Una gran cantidad de grupos de presión pro-patentes de software resultan ser financiados por Microsoft.

Actualización: Para Microsoft FUD de esta semana, nos muestra como otro jugador oscura es víctima de ofertas de extorsión[http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Microsoft-makes-third-Android-patent-deal-this-week-1271149.html]. Microsoft sólo está ATACANDO a empresas muy pequeñas como para ir a la corte y quejarse al gobierno usando la Ley RICO, por ejemplo. Barnes & Noble se quejó y se filtró la evidencia del CHANTAJE SISTEMATIZADO, a Microsoft le gustaría evitar eso.
