I still hold that it was the right choice for ME to make. But now its more a “The lesser of two evils” case. Obama for oppression and McCain for WWIII.

US politics aside, this article was very VERY well written. I will recommend it to all my friends to try to do my own part in “fighting the war”.

You don’t anything about the Free Software Foundation.

This article is CC-BY-ND, and as you can easily see, they use “CC licenses”.

They don’t use only the GNU GPL for programs either.

The only freedom “BDS like” licenses give more than the GNU GPL is the freedom to convert a free program to a non-free one.

You are using a very old flawed argument.

That’s like arguing that slavery should be aloud for people to be truly free.

Also, most of the CC licenses are more restrictive than the GNU GPL.

We all need to stop funding our own demise.

They’ll change their ways if we change our buying habits ;)
