You think Stallman would get smacked down by Apple? They can't sue him, he doesn't own anything.

- gaius 17y agoDon't forget the other million dollar grant, from the Takeda Foundation. All Stallman's economics make sense when you realize that he's quietly sitting on a huge pile of cash.
- calambrac 17y agoHe would probably love nothing more than to get sued by Apple, honestly.
- JeremyChase 17y agoHe would probably love nothing more than to get sued by Apple, for something he has a legal leg to stand on.
- SamAtt 17y agoHe has more than you think. To give one example, Apple could include the FSF in the suit meaning whatever assets the FSF has could be put into jeapordy. I'm not saying that's right or fair and I'm not saying they'd even win but they could inflict some damage (legal fees alone would be an issue) When someone's using the law as a weapon they're trying to take away what the other person values. Just because someone doesn't value money doesn't mean the law can't take away other things.
