Anytime somebody mentions this, all I hear is, "They said mean things about my ideology of choice".
- hga 11y agoThen you should actually skim them; while of course their presentation as "the Halloween documents" is propaganda, they're sufficiently damning in their own right. They financed a bogus lawfare campaign against Linux, although I doubt they knew it was utterly bogus (The SCO Group never actually owned any rights to UNIX(TM), and knew it before commencing the lawsuits.)
- throwawaykf05 11y agoYep, I've skimmed them (or at least, ESR's articles about them). Propaganda is a well-know weapon in business, only it is better known as "PR".
