Video: Stallman on DRM, Patents and C #
In another of our videos of the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit, Richard Stallman declares his position on DRM, patents and C #.
The FSF Boss told a press conference why he's vehemently against Digital Rights Management (DRM), which he describes as “Digital Restrictions Management” and criticized the European Patent Office's policy on software.
Stallman also explains comments he made in his keynote speech regarding the use of Microsoft's C # and why the GNU project incorporate their own version of C # in the portable dotnet technology.
