Comment Re:Judges from the 20th century have to go (Score 0) 356

Seriously, this is not applicable here!

What he did is not ethical according to me. He did this for monetary gains plain and simple. If facebook decided to prosecute I do not hold that against them. More menacing ones are probably going to take his place and make it even more expensive for facebook.

He found a security breach great. He want's to disclose it to Facebook while at the same time receive monetary compensation why else would he negotiate with facebook and point out that he has yet to do something bad with the code such as release it in the wild and point out that he was successful previously with the same approach. Unless he informed Facebook even while the negotiation failed it was blackmail. Not very ethical...

Muhammed was a historical person and is very well documented by non-muslim sources that lived at the same time. All the way from kings, to scribes and historians. Most other if not all of the other prophets have no documentation whatsoever. My professor once told me only ignorants deny his existence. Denying that he existed even though there are facts to support this is not the same as denying him being what he claimed to be.

That is the bible you are quoting and not shariah. They might be synonymous but they are certainly not the same.

Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NLT

'If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father. Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.'

No more pedofile than the vatican where the age of consent is 12 no matter if the child has reached sexual maturity or not. Only in 1910 England decided to change the age of consent from 10-12 (depending on where) to a higher age. In spain the age of consent is 13, Austria 14, whether they take notice of 'reaching sexual maturity' or not I do not know. And..do not forget the torah, bible, talmud and the new testament...some go as low as 3 months.

Because this guy is stupid beyond belief. He decided to break local laws and regulations in a state that is the 'mothership' of this religion and that actually enforces these laws with severity. Laws that he before getting visa/entry to country signed off that he was under. No matter what one thinks about these laws, and other countries stupid laws that suppresses freedom of expression, this guy decided to insult them too. And no matter where you go you are always under local laws, break a law in USA, England, Europe, Scandinavia, Israel no matter where you are from, those local laws applies even though you think they are foolish. He should have waited until he was in different jurisdiction and then tried to 'promote' freedom of speech instead of setting in back a few decades.

He signed a contract when he got his visa/entered the country and reminded that he would be judged under the saudiarabian laws. Still he decided to break saudi laws (no matter what you think about them) while being in saudi arabia. He is stupid and put himself into this mess. Would you go to germany and start talking about freedom of speech and holocaust in germany? No, I don't think so because local laws would have you put in jail for the next 10 years. But outside of germany you are free to do as you please, and so was this idiot. He should have waited until he left saudi arabia before making those comments where he would not be making himself a criminal.

There is a reason why GPL is called COPYLEFT. "The GNU General Public License, originally written by Richard Stallman, was the first copyleft license to see extensive use, and continues to dominate the licensing of copylefted software." -- Taken from wikipedia article on Copyleft.

"Copyleft is a play on the word copyright to describe the practice of using copyright law to offer the right to distribute copies and modified versions of a work and requiring that the same rights be preserved in modified versions of the work. In other words, copyleft is a general method for making a program (or other work) free (libre), and requiring all modified and extended versions of the program to be free as well." -- Taken from wikipedia article on Copyleft.
