This article is obvious propaganda and the writer should be ashamed for helping Apple spread their agenda. Developers do not want a sexy API, they want to know that their innovations are not subject to a license that grants Apple complete and exclusive control. Developers who were foolish enough to …

Who cares? We have GNU/Linux which doesn't impose on your rights to use, study, modify, and redistribute the software. Freedom is more important than all of the silly nonsense mentioned in this article.

and some of us prefer to avoid enslaving technology made by Microsoft, Adobe, Apple and others. Instead, we use Free Software like GNU/Linux that respects our freedoms.

Obviously, this is part of the hype behind Obama's attempt to shutdown the Internet. We'll continue to see stories like the "Craigslist Killer" and read bills like H.R. 1966 (CyberBullying Act). There is a bigger picture here folks. The Internet is the last forum for free speech and the global …

Of course, the issues surrounding the freedoms to inspect, use for any purpose, modify, and redistribute …

Ken, Seriously... what's wrong with you? It's bad enough that you are admitting that you have no awareness or feelings regarding the obvious relationship between technology and society but now you're advocating that others join your apathy bandwagon? I'm thrilled that you are so content in the small and controlled …

The issue with Microsoft's products has to do with their crippling license agreements. We can call it whatever we want to but it's the EULA that gives Microsoft full control over your data and computer(s). Frankly, I find it laughable that a "technical writer" would be happy with a lifetime …
