Using the European championship to spread malware
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft is pushing their evil SilverLight platform very hard. They want to
| make sure that providers of cross-platform software for delivering rich
| applications via the web browser are thwarted. This is normal behavior for a
| monopolistic company and certainly for Microsoft. To accomplish this goal
| they are throwing around bucketloads of money and FUD to get content
| providers to use the Microsoft malware Silverlight exclusively.

Shining Some Light on Microsoft's Moonlight Covenant

| My conclusion now, after having reviewed it, is the same as I predicted. This

Mono, The Road To Hell: Final Proof
,----[ Quote ]
| This is a Microsoft-branded piece of shit.
|
| Now, if there are still Linux users still loving Mono, and still believing
| they have anything in common with FREEDOM & Open Source, they're idiots like
| hell.
|
| Proofs of MALA FIDE from Microsoft's part:
|
| 1. NOBODY interested in a good-faith patent protection would restrict the
| protection to the downstream recipients of a UNIQUE source — but this is
| what Microsoft is doing!
|
| 2. NOBODY interested in a good-faith patent protection would restrict the
| protection to the UNMODIFIED AND USED "AS INTENDED" ("for the intended
| purpose") for an OPEN-SOURCE project — but this is what Microsoft is doing!
|
| 3. NOBODY interested in a good-faith patent protection would restrict the
| protection in any ways. Simply imposing restrictions means WHATEVER FALLS
| OUTSIDE THE SPECIFIC CONDITIONS IS SUBJECT TO FEAR, UNCERTAINTY AND DOUBT!
|
| Yes, this is Microsoft. Yes, this covenant is ONLY and ONLY for the benefit
| of Novell's SLED and SLES, and for the benefit of openSUSE. This is for
| people to ONLY consider openSUSE as a "safe" Linux way to use Moonlight and
| Mono, and therefore to increase the penetration of SLED/SLES as "the" Linux
| for the Enterprise.
|
| This is the abjection of the Microsoft-Novell fascist conspiracy.
|
| Have a nice day.
