side of the small guy?side of the small guy?Posted Aug 12, 2007 6:27 UTC (Sun) by khim (subscriber, #9252)In reply to: side of the small guy? by ccyoung Parent article: Court Rules: Novell owns the UNIX and UnixWare copyrights! (Groklaw)
of the riaa cases, how many have been fought? Not many. Even so few we have successful ones. how many successful suits against the microsoft tax we all know and love? What exactly are you talking about ? The fact that noone was able to force Microsoft to change it's predatory licensing policy ? Sorry - it goes way beyond "small guy" vs "big guy". If you are talking about refund - people were able to get it many times. Even without court. I think you totally misunderstood what I wrote. Court does not make it easy for a "small guy" to harass a "big guy" - it'll be equally wrong. And yes, it's often the case that a "small guy" folds up without court (what the court can do in this case?). But if a "small guy" actually is brave/foolish enough to go to court - then it'll have judge's sympathy and support. Wherever possible, of course. Judge will not bend the law for the sake of a "small guy" :-) But when the law offers choice...
