The dark side of Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| In the Free Software world, well, we are quite used to enjoy freedom. For
| example, we do the arguable thing of having a big number of different
| distributions, FLOSS licenses, desktop solutions or software applications.
| Sometimes this is positive, they compete, they learn from each other and they
| try different approaches. It makes things work better.
|
| However, sometimes we have no clue of how to use our freedom, really. Or even
| worse, we use it to actually limit it.

Chinese Internet dissident committed to mental hospital
,----[ Quote ]
| "It is not acceptable that Chinese authorities use such methods to silence
| citizens who have merely peacefully voiced their opinions", expressed the
| organisation in an announcement. Apparently authorities have not abandoned
| the practice of punishing those who have exposed the abuse of power and
| defied censorship by compulsorily committing them to mental institutions.
