how implementable Flash ishow implementable Flash isPosted Jan 26, 2010 13:31 UTC (Tue) by dannyobrien (subscriber, #25583)In reply to: how implementable Flash is by butlerm Parent article: Blizzard: HTML5 video and H.264 - what history tells us and why we're standing with the web If the EFF wanted to do something useful, they would find people with standing to challenge the extremely dubious arguments behind retail shrinkwrap licenses and push the counterargument based on traditional legal reasoning It's funny you should say that... actually EFF is heavily involved in this fight (it was counsel on two of the three cases listed on the page you linked to), and I do believe we're expecting to work on a number of key cases in this area in the next year. We generally describe this as the fight over first sale (partly because the fight also includes patent issues as well as shrinkwrap licenses), but it's the same counterargument.
