Calling Stallman "Linux creator" is quite an achievement in ignorance when he explicitly refers to the os as "GNU/Linux" to give GNU credit.


Agree. This is the original title, but a better title is "Stallman says Windows, OS X, iOS and Android are all malware"

Also, the article is just a few quotes of The Guardian's article that was submitted a few days ago without too much discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9591059 (12 points, 3 days ago, 2 comments )


I was just about to say this. If Linus Torvalds said this, I would be shocked and astounded (not because it's out of character for him, but because it's a very shortsighted point of view). RMS, however... Yeah, this is basically totally expected, and what he's been saying for basically ever. No news here.
