True, it is one of the oldest techniques to used discredit someone.
It is also amazing how that rather than conduct decent discussion with
reasonable counter arguments, that the classic trolls in
c.o.l.advocacy in reference to Mr. Schestowitz, Mr. Kent and a few
others, will utter gross, defamating styled, repulsive names, with
their selective snippage of facts.
It is fortunate that personas such as PJ and Mr. Langford with his
"Boycott Iomega" website have exposed the truth with these predatory
type companies. The best way to refute is to expose the facts.
As initially started in this thread, the actions of SCO in subpoenaing
Groklaw does seem to show indeed that SCO's legal team is now grasping
for straws.
Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation or SLAPP type lawsuits
against bloggers is nothing new. Thomas Paine blogged with his
"Common Sense" and Martin Luther with his "The 95 Theses". These
writings made changes to current thinking in the world at the time.
Similarly, blogs such as Groklaw and Boycott Iomega are helping to
change thinking in the world at this time.
