Why I Did Not Discuss My Participation in the SOPA/PIPA Blackout

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

Many of you who came to the X-Cop Fly Company blog (or to Rogue Central @ coredumpcentral.org) yesterday were redirected to the SOPA Strike page. (The blackout on the X-Cop Fly Company blog started a few hours late for EST people such as myself, since the plugin I used here had a bug, and I [...]

Not Far From The Truth Ideologically

Well, it’s your property, and when you get robbed, you call the police to defend your property, right? Old RIAA PSA Commercial

OpenBSD Backdoor: Can Anyone Escape Impurity?

Wednesday, December 15th, 2010

I had held for a long time that OpenBSD was the best, not only for security reasons, but to escape corporate and government influence. Unlike Linux and FreeBSD, which have involvement and sponsorship by the NSA, other government agencies & contractors, and large multinational corporations, with built in “remote attestation” and “optional” built-in support for [...]

Apple/AT&T “Copyright Infringement” Racket Finally Destroyed, Noncommercial Filmmakers Gain Additional Rights

Monday, July 26th, 2010

The Electronic Frontier Foundation finally succeeded at something: The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) won three critical exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) anticircumvention provisions today, carving out new legal protections for consumers who modify their cell phones and artists who remix videos — people who, until now, could have been sued for their [...]

For at least 2-3 years, including on this blog, I have been pointing out the hypocrisy resulting from the commercialization of open-source software, including the FSF selling out to special interests, TPM in the Linux kernel, the NSA winning a “no-bid contract” of sort into the Linux kernel’s remote attestation features, remote attestation in Linux [...]

“Blogs vs. Twitter & Facebook” Arguments, As Applied to the Bill of Rights

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

There have been a lot of posts (and political lobbying) within the past few years by a dying Media 1.0 establishment and a gullible public to discourage the creation and reading of blogs, this time by encouraging Twitter and Facebook as replacements for blogs. Examples: 1 2 3 4 Rather than go on a standard [...]

Murder, Child Abduction, Arson, other crimes have Lower Fines than File Sharing

Monday, August 31st, 2009

When will politicians even discuss or debate any antitrust or anti-racketeering violations by this industry? So many violations are obvious, and there’s that “way they do business” (including lobbying for the right to hack and possibly doing it anyway) Stats the MAFIAA doesn’t want you to know about: 1. Child abduction: the fine is only [...]

No fucking point.

Linux is just as much crooked as the other “unfree” competitors who make sleazy deals and use crooked NSA and MAFIAA technology. Flame me again this time asshole fanboy sheepfuckers, I’ll just spam your ad hominem bullshit comments this time instead of debating you intelligently the same arguments over and over when you just attack [...]
