Sun (nprofile…h6f2) I got nothing against FOSS and the initiatives to promote it. I just get annoyed when some people in the FOSS camp get over zealous at people using anything that's a non-FOSS / proprietary software at all.
I respect what FOSS does in being free and in free to modify and view the code and do what you essentially want with it as long as you follow the licensing it's coded under but there is some software I do like that is non-free (mostly games) and part of freedom is choice and I should be able to use non-free software as well as free software. With that said I wish some of the non-free software I used was more free mostly due to the draconian restrictions on DRM that I do not like at all.
