Ok this is getting ridiculous. Joining Ballmer and Ellison, Free software activist Richard Stallman
He goes on.
"Do your own computing on your own computer with your copy of a freedom-respecting program," he says. "If you use a proprietary program or somebody else's web server, you're defenceless. You're putty in the hands of whoever developed that software."Gee thanks for the insight, my suggestion: go and take a shower and shave.

If it wasn't for rms, most of the software that runs in the cloud wouldn't exist.
It is a little ironic given that most cloud services are running on GNU software...hard to see how the cloud could exist without it.
Oh, but you guys are forgetting that today's twenty-somethings invented absolutely everything all by themselves, or at least know how to make it way better and use it in much more creative ways than whatever came before, purely because of their own ingenuity and not because the speeds and feeds or economics have changed since then. I haven't seen such arrogance since . . . ummm . . . well, since I was a twenty-something myself. ;)
