Yeah just read it from this link:
McBride's New Open Letter on Copyrights
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/12/05/0515215
The bit that really struck me from McBride's letter is:
Despite the raw emotions, however, the issue is clear:
do you support copyrights and ownership of intellectual
property as envisioned by our elected officials in
Congress and the European Union, or do you support
"free" -- as in free from ownership -- intellectual
property envisioned by the Free Software Foundation, Red
Hat and others? There really is no middle ground. The
future of the global economy hangs in the balance.
I think he is right about one thing...
