It needs to be put in context. What he meant was: when a company cannot compete (inferior product), they scream at the top of their lungs BUT IT'S OPEN! in order to masquerade their incompetence. He may have a point.

However, and I'd be preaching to the choir, we all know that it doesn't also mean that when a company has an "open" product, it sucks by default. He may have tried to pull this false correlation.
He also said in an earlier paragraph that the Brazillian government is wasting time with open-source, since inovation is in the private industry.

Stupid probably doesn't even know they ripped their sockets implementation from BSD...

Going a little off-topic here...

I said something like that to my mom... when I was 4 years old.
It was something like "I'm feeling very lonely. - Why? Mom, how can I be sure if what I'm saying is actually what you hearing? How do I know if things even have the same meaning to you and me? It could be pointless to even ask those questions."

I think my brain capacity has declined since THEN :P
