1) I made no comment on the article 19 because I knew you would step in, that's how predictable you are. After all, I was expecting you would say the exact word-for-word motto of all the pirates.... and you didn't fail at it. But of course, "you're against piracy"
2) That same article says, and I quote:
Quote:
|
Everyone has the right to say what they think and to give and receive information
|
it doesn't say ANYWHERE what you're defending, which translates to the following:
Quote:
|
Everyone has the right to profit from other people's work
|
And your RedHat example is laughable (like everything you said in this thread). So you mean that if I work for free I'll be rich? Or do you mean that YOU and OTHER PIRATES will dictate how should I work and earn my living so you can profit on my effort? Please elaborate, this is getting really funny
3) Copyright BY DEFINITION isn't monopoly. BY DEFINITION.
Quote:
|
a monopoly (from Greek monos / μονος (alone or single) + polein / πωλειν (to sell)) exists when a specific individual or an enterprise has sufficient control over a particular product or service to determine significantly the terms on which other individuals shall have access to it.

When there are MILLIONS of people holding copyright for their creations, speaking of monopoly crosses the line beyond retardness to enter a whole new universe of stupidity and non-sense.
But even then, I have the option to use different rights attributions (GPL, copyleft, etc).
IF I CHOOSE TO DO SO. NOT BECAUSE A CRIMINAL DICTATED THAT I'M OBLIGATED TO DO IT. This is the FREEDOM OF CHOICE, not your proposed economic slavery
4) One thing is defending FREEDOM OF SPEECH. What you're defending is PIRACY. I don't know of ANY site that was seized because of opinions, not even
wiki leaks. The only sites you're crying for are the ones pirating content. 100% of them. So, please explain me oh freedom fighter how this is not defending piracy and thieves.
5) Sorry if I don't accept that you and people like you controls my life and my family's for your own profit. I live in a country where slavery doesn't exist since 1813. Period.
