A new source of anti-GPL FUDA new source of anti-GPL FUDPosted Nov 21, 2003 16:42 UTC (Fri) by alspnost (subscriber, #2763)Parent article: A new source of anti-GPL FUD Strange indeed. What an extraordinary piece of hyperbole. They seem to think that the GPL can be used as a lurking weapon to attack people's software, steal it and drag it out into the open. They've rather missed the point that the GPL, like any other license, is something you *choose* to attach to your product. Sure, if you choose it for your product, or if you use someone else's GPL work in your product, you have to follow its rules, but no-one's forcing you to go down that path. Anyway, no need to preach that here ;-)

A new source of anti-GPL FUD Posted Nov 21, 2003 18:11 UTC (Fri) by laurent (guest, #7539) [Link] What this stuff really means is very simple: Other law firms are starting to notice the good business ($$$) that Boies & associates are making with this SCO.So for the price of a Press Release that doesn't say much, they advertise their services hoping that someone with a $3.000.000.000 lawsuit to manage will come to them. For them I guess that investment is better than any lottery game they could ever play... Remember in any case that FUD means good business for lawyers...
