MS needs to be put back in its place... (Score 1)

I don't know about you, but I think Micro$oft needs to be heavily slapped on its wrists and put back in its place. What it is suggesting is that you or I, as a programmer, have no right to distribute software that we write. May I remind MS of the First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Code is a form of language and hence speech. What MS is trying to do is remove your first amendment. Good luck M$, your going to need it. You will not silence this movement, but you might find yourself silenced if you continue along these lines. M$, go count your cents and leave the real programmers do what they want. We're coming at you from behind! c0rarc
