TC, Good article, the comments were a lot like what we see here on LXer. You have done something that got you a spot on a Linux publication. Whatever that was, it has given you a forum to wail and lament about Linux and all the little connections to Linux YOU see. Linux does not exist in a vacuum. Keep going!

You did forget to mention the Tin Foil Hat Squadron ( I am a Colonel there to) and many of us suspect that politics is a conspiracy not the cause of.

Kudos for the mention of Lawrence Lessig. Nobody knows just how huge Prof. Lessig is. http://www.lessig.org/blog/

Boys and girls, this is NOT about YOU, its all about Linux.

It *is* about my ability to use Linux for any legitimate purpose, without interference from the government, Microsoft, Adobe, Nvidia, the MafIAA...

So, in that sense, it is about me.
