Richard Stallman, fundador del Proyecto GNU y asiduo defensor de software libre, hizo una declaraciones a raíz del fallecimiento de Steve Jobs que a más uno le van a caer muy mal. Creo que, independientemente de lo que Stallman crea o piense de Jobs y su particular filosofía de producir y mercadear sus productos, sus expresiones son insensibles. Lea y juzgue usted:
“Steve Jobs, the pioneer of the computer as a jail made cool, designed to sever fools from their freedom, has died. As Chicago Mayor Harold Washington said of the corrupt former Mayor Daley, “I’m not glad he’s dead, but I’m glad he’s gone.” Nobody deserves to have to die – not Jobs, not Mr. Bill, not even people guilty of bigger evils than theirs. But we all deserve the end of Jobs’ malign influence on people’s computing.
Unfortunately, that influence continues despite his absence. We can only hope his successors, as they attempt to carry on his legacy, will be less effective.”
