There is a link in the article to a separate post: https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users-including-amazon-elasticsearch-service-open-distro-and-others https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users-includin.... I think this is what it is referring to.
- nenolod 6y agoI read that article and it is very redolent of what SCO argued back in the day. If they had actual proof, they would take legal action against the author of that plugin.
- joshuaissac 6y ago> I read that article [...] If they had actual proof, they would take legal action against the author of that plugin. The first sentence of that article: > Back on September 4th, we filed a lawsuit against floragunn GmbH, the makers of Search Guard, a security plugin for Elasticsearch
- nenolod 6y agoYeah? SCO sued a bunch of people too. They haven't won, though.
- joshuaissac 6y agoElastic and Floragunn are unrelated to SCO.
- nenolod 6y agoThey share a similarity: the Floragunn litigation is unresolved (and clearly Floragunn continues to distribute their plugin). SCO, too, failed to resolve their litigation favorably to SCO.
- joshuaissac 6y agoThat is a very tenuous connection. Floragunn has not resolved the litigation in their favour, either. If we are going off similarities, Napster also continued to distribute their software while their lawsuit involving the RIAA was unresolved. The court still ruled against them eventually.
- bonzini 6y agoThey did in September 2019. Is literally the first sentence of the linked article and it links to https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users. I am not sure of the outcome.
