Subject: The Nonsense of "Free" Software

Go up one level in this thread


The main reason is a structural craziness of the internet. And also a reason is
the certainly justified American Law. A third factor is the so called academic
output on the base of high universitarian salaries for software producers. But
also that should be changed into commercially sound practice.

It is absolutely crazy if people with a talent to program present their products
for "free"! At the same time they must pay real money for their living. This is
idiotic. Ok, fine, I can be so rich that I could give my creations for "free",
but STILL the users should pay a certain minimal price into sort of banque for
the whole field.

The development now is called suicide. All the producers give their products for
"free" and then only two or three can survive.

The whole system is a fake. The philosophy of getting all for nothing is
completely insane. It destroys the will and mind of the people. They remain
childs with a need of direct satisfaction. We see them on the internet. They
talk with academics although they don't have the minimal education and they
surely give a damn for education.

This will lead to the decline of Western Civilization. Period.
