Re: [security-discuss] Freedom 0: the utilitarian vs. the deontologist

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

   GNU Radio Foundation, Inc. is denying freedom 0 to GNU wget users.
   The only GNU Radio users being denied freedom 0 are those who are
   also GNU wget users.

1) GNU wget users are not being "denied" access to GNU radio via Tor.
   Here is me downloading GNU radio via Tor using GNU wget:

  $ wget http://gnuradio.org/releases/gnuradio/gnuradio-3.7.10.1.tar.gz

2) By saying that the GNU Radio Foundation is "denying access" you are
   saying that they have activley taken decisions to make it
   impossible, or very hard to download GNU Radio, they have done no
   such thing.
