From code war to Cold War (BBC)
I do not know how software could be regulated, to have a system where people who do work get paid - and where distribution is not largely based on illegal networks.
I do feel unwell when I look at my lawer, my juges, my political representatives, and soon my <insert your religion here> representatives using software under licenses which includes "not to sue" clauses.
So the laws in my country is written and maintained by computer systems with a "agree not to sue the provider company in any way" license?
Nobody is forced to agree the license - but then he can not read the law?
The juge can only read the evidence written in <atextprocessor> if he first agree the license?
a strange world it is,
ATN.
