Marxist?
quote:James Ewing of Sveasoft claims the GPL itself is "an 'all or nothing' license based on the economic and political theories of Karl Marx." Dirty Commies!
Did Ewing even bother to read anything written by Karl Marx before making such a stupid statement? People writing software and then choosing how that software is to be distributed is a prime example of the individual freedom which is nullified by Marxism.
If this thief doesn't want to abide by the terms of the OpenWRT license then he cannot use the software. If he had been pilfering code owned by Microsoft he would be in all sorts of legal trouble. How does OpenWRT being licensed under the GPL automatically weaken any protections that it already has under US copyright law? -- Rove / Rumsfeld 2008!
The Sveasoft clan lives in their own little world where they and everything they do is great for mankind or the galaxy. Just look at how they ban people for opining about the pay model. (I think it is funny tho how they charge you so you can be a beta tester for them.) They started bending rules and crossing lines and it's about time they got caught with their hands in the cookie jar.
