I think I have some solid evidence for my claim that RMS is mischievous:
Some more evidence:
1. Stallman named his famous license as the GPL which stands for General
Public License. This creates the impression that this is the license which the
general public wants. And also that other licenses are not for the general
public but for the big bad corporates.
Why didn't he call it Free Software License or FSL for short? Purposely to
misinterpret, IMO.
2. Also, Stalmman and his FSF folks give bad and critical expansions for
acronymns which they don't like. For example:
DRM: Originally stood for Digital Rights Management; RMS called it Digital
Restrictions Management.
CBDTPA: Consumer Broadband Data... something Act, The FSF expands it to:
"Consume But Don't Try Programming Act.
Microsoft retorted by renaming DRM to RMS, calling it Rights Management
System!;-) Stallman couldn't respond because it was his own initials ;-)
A funny game is being played here, for the minds and hearts of the computing
masses.
