Taking an intellectually lazy passive-aggressive jab at people who support in free (as in freedom) software falls under the heading "being a jerk".

- Potando 12y agoIsn't it a good thing to spread awareness of what can be a misleading topic? Public arguments help to enlighten people who might be misled by the confusingly overloaded word "freedom". I appreciate the concept of GPL raising the bar too high for commercial software to compete and it's been a great success in some areas. But that isn't quite the same as freedom. It might be more accurately be called "forced free" software.
