How about don't +-mention them? Just use their name and then attach a link to their Google+ profile instead? That won't count as a mention.

it wouldn't take that long and they should be getting paid for their work as well. why not ask someone to volunteer and do this so they can get back to work on VLC itself? why not ask for some donations?

I don't smoke the chronic, thanks for making an assumption and reducing the level of debate here to a juvenile level. Laws aren't natural, they're man-made things and they can be removed if they cause more problems than they solve.

This is why we should get rid of the copyright system completely and keep it that way or start from scratch and build a new system (I prefer the former...). Time to move over to some kind of fully encrypted Internet or something :/

Why doesn't apple secure their equipment? What about the millions of cameras in every store and building and ATM? Why are people worried about a few laptop cameras "spying" on them when they're spied upon as soon as they walk out of the hou

They can create their own versions of those spam sites that offer the genuine product. That's what I would do, and they should have bought up some of those domain names earlier. The URL gives a lot of hints and definitely helps SEO.

How can you say "intellectual" property and GPL in the same sentence? That's fucked up, seriously. The whole point of the GPL is to help erode the copyright system and make it unnecessary. Of course this situation is not specific to VLC, o

However the police also check for unusual heat signatures coming out of buildings at night, that could also have been what happened. Uh, wtf, since when? They're allowed to do this without a warrant? They just randomly drive along the str

Indeed, it's why they should grow an ethical/moral portion in their brain as well -_-' Being a professional doesn't mean you should ignore ethical or moral concerns.

Our society is built upon capitalist competition. Being fair doesn't count unless you can see its impact on the bottom-line and unfortunately it's difficult to quantify something that's qualitative. Also, fair leaders are rarely shown in tv

A more democratic company structure would probably help with these issues. It seems that a dictatorial structure allows the top execs to ignore all the underlings, to ignore the little people who actually do much of the work.

Turn it into free software! It would be invaluable to the community and you would get a hell of a reputation for it I think, especially from hackernews users.
