[aclug-L] Have you seen the newest use of the DMCA?

[James <pantherace13@xxxxxxxxx>]

Microsoft seems to have stuck it's hand in a hornet's nest, again.

Microsoft wants to have Slashdot (If you don't know what slashdot is check
out "http://slashdot.org"; <- address  ("http:///..org";<- name)) censored. I
seem to think that that is one of the stupidest things M$ has done. If you
think about it, even if they are technically correct in the law, they stuck
their legal tendons into one of the places a lot of open source people go.
Open source people have already been mad about them subverting another open
standard, but now this! Well if they do succede in censoring slashdot, let's
help with a move the slashdot server to Russia, or somewhere.
