Aren't these measures solely for the purpose to stop file sharing of copywrited material?

This 1984 talk is pretty silly. People steal, with their computers and internet connections. And the companies who are getting robbed are trying desperately to put a stop to this.

To say this is like 1984 is like saying a supermarket using security cameras is like 1984. These businesses have a right to protect themselves from thieves.

And guess what? We are all pretty much thieves.

The point is to refuse their restrictions by the solely fact of dismiss them. So simple like that.

My computer is like my "Bussiness".
I use to think like a boss, not like a employee who accepts directions.
In fact, like a boss, I create my own rules and I choose my employees (the vendors).

Like in the real life, you can choose to work for to make rich other people, or, to make rich yourself.
It is up to you.

German shepherd or sheep? :|\\

Yep, but who controls what vendors are available for you ? The vendors do, so you back to being an employee :D

Wrong! :p

If you had understood what had been written in this thread, you should agree that:

1- The Open Source community writes its own software.

2- The Open Source community writes its own drivers (with some exceptions), with or without hardware vendors help.

The implications of this are extremely obvious.

Have a nice day. :up:
