+<p>The <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/monomaniacal";
+title="Fanatical, or obsessed with one cause or idea to the exclusion
+of other concerns.">monomaniacal</a> fear of <a
+href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_media";>big media companies</a>
+is that people will share digital media with their friends, building a
+free public library of cultural works.  Public libraries are wonderful
+institutions, and in a digital age they become almost miraculous: we
+can now provide universal access to human knowledge and
+culture&mdash;or at least anything that's been published&mdash;at
+little or no cost.  The amazing thing is that it's almost automatic:
+once people can share freely with their friends over a global network,
+you get a digital public library.  P2P networks are one example of a
+digital library, and the web is another.  The value of these libraries
+to the public is historic and immeasurable.  But media companies serve
+shareholders, not the public, and are therefore very ready to destroy
+in its infancy any public resource that might interfere with their
+profits.  The personal computer is built from the ground up to make
+sharing information fast and easy, so for media companies to restrict
+sharing they need the full cooperation of software makers at the
+deepest level.  Enter Microsoft.</p>
+
+<p>In order to completely prevent sharing, media companies needed
+Microsoft to do two things:</p>
+
+<ul> <li><p>First, they had to make sure that any outgoing digital
+signal is just as locked down as the DRM'ed music or movie
+file. Otherwise you could simply play a video on your computer out to
+another device (like your digital camera) and press record.  So
+Windows, when playing a file with DRM, needs to constantly check to
+make sure any connected device is cooperating with the DRM scheme.
+This anti-feature is called <a
+href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_Media_Path";>Protected
+Media Path</a>.  Microsoft introduced it with Vista, and it continues
+in Windows 7.</p></li> <li><p>Second, media companies needed Microsoft
+to keep other programs from observing the playback process and
+intercepting the audio and video in unencrypted form.  After all, it
+is still your computer, and (as much as media companies hate this) you
+can install and run whatever applications you want.  Vista and Windows
+7 close this "loophole" by monitoring all the applications currently
+running whenever a media file with DRM is playing.  If Vista or
+Windows 7 detects an unapproved application running in the background,
+your song or video will simply stop playing.  In practice, the
+encryption on most popular DRM schemes (including DVD and Blu ray) has
+been cracked, and DRM-free copies of almost any piece of film or music
+are available on the internet.  But users of Windows 7 and Vista still
+have code running on their computer&mdash;at all times&mdash;that is
+trying to limit their basic right to share media with each other and
+their power to build libraries.</p></li> </ul>
+
+<p>These restrictions have gone beyond what many would expect. For
+example, at the request of NBC, Microsoft <a 
href="http://gizmodo.com/391642/microsoft-will-totally-bork-your-media-center-dvr-if-nbc-or-anyone-asks-it-to";>prevented
 Windows Media
+Center users from recording television
+shows</a>
+that NBC would rather you didn't, even though this kind of recording
+is an included feature of Windows Media Center. They claimed that they
+were just following FCC regulations, though the Second Circuit Court
+of Appeals ruled that the FCC has no authority to make such
+regulations.</p>
+
+<p>Microsoft even adds DRM in contexts where media companies have largely
+given up on it.  This year, after every major online music store went
+DRM-free, Microsoft <a 
href="http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/245859/q-a-microsoft-defends-return-to-drm";>launched
 a DRM-encumbered music store for mobile
+phones</a>
+&mdash; this music service has one particularly charming limitation:
+many people switch cellphones every 6 months to a year, but there is
+no way to transfer songs from one phone to the next.  If you switch
+phones every 6 months, then you lose your music every six months.  But
+more importantly, this is a level of DRM that music companies are no
+longer demanding, indicating that Microsoft has its own aim in
+promoting DRM: lock-in.  Because DRM creates artificial
+incompatibility, it is the perfect tool for tying users of a service
+to a particular product.  When people buy music from a Microsoft
+service, they cannot use any other music players (like the iPod, for
+example).  Even when Microsoft launched its own "Zune" music player,
+<a 
href="http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2006/09/microsofts-zune-wont-play-protected-windows-media";>the
 Zune did not play tracks with Microsoft "Plays for Sure"
+DRM</a>
+sold by other music services (including the MTV URGE Music Service
+<em>built in</em> to Windows Media Player 11).  Pressure from big media
+companies is not the only reason Microsoft pushes DRM; lock-in is
+central to Microsoft's business strategy and DRM is a great way to
+pursue it.</p>
+
+<p>Microsoft is not the only company guilty of this. Apple, via <a 
href="http://www.defectivebydesign.org/itunes-drm-free";>its
+iTunes software</a>,
+and its Macintosh, iPod, <a href="http://www.fsf.org/iphone";>iPhone</a> and 
Apple
+TV devices also imposes DRM on users. Adobe and Sony also impose DRM
+on users. But Microsoft is a particularly aggressive user of DRM, and
+the integration of DRM at the deepest levels of Windows 7 is a key
+reason not to buy it.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Free software, by its very nature, does not support DRM &mdash; if 
DRM
+  were added to free software, the users and developers would work
+  around it and remove it.</strong></p>

+<p>The education of children represents a major revenue stream for
+Microsoft, and a strategic opportunity to embed their products into
+the lives of future adults. By enticing schools to teach their
+students using Windows and associated software, Microsoft can also
+make parents feel obliged to provide the same software at home. Where
+else do we see one corporation able to put their marketing and
+corporate branded materials in front of children as requirements in
+this way?</p>
+
+<p>Many US states even boast about how they are cooperating with
+Microsoft, either ignoring or not understanding the corrupting
+influence that accepting freebies from this huge corporation has on
+their government. Because Microsoft's software is proprietary, it is
+<strong>incompatible</strong> with education &mdash; users are simply
+passive consumers in their interactions with Windows, they are legally
+forbidden from adapting the software to solve a particular problem, or
+from satisfying an intellectual curiosity by examining its source
+code. An education using the power of computers should be a means to
+freedom and empowerment, not an avenue for one corporation to instill
+its monopoly through indoctrination. </p>
+
+<p>Free software, on the other hand, gives children a route to
+empowerment, by encouraging them to explore and learn. Nowhere was the
+promise of an educational platform using free software more
+significant than the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project. Launched by
+MIT professor Nicholas Negroponte in 2003, OLPC was designed to lead
+children around the world to an advanced education using the
+combination of information technology and freedom. The project aimed
+to produce low-cost devices (starting with one called the XO) so that
+millions of children could have access to them, and free software, so
+they would <a href="http://laptop.org/en/vision/";>have the critical
+freedoms to explore and share their software</a>. </p>
+
+<p>Then <a
+href="http://www.olpcnews.com/files/microsoft_emails_on_olpc.pdf";>under
+pressure from Microsoft</a>, Negroponte backed the project away from
+its commitment to freedom and announced that the machine would also be
+a platform for running the nonfree Windows XP operating system. </p>
+
+<p>Microsoft is not the only threat to education &mdash; Adobe and
+Apple are both firmly placed in education, even on Windows. Adobe's
+proprietary Flash and Shockwave players and Apple's QuickTime and
+iTunes are widely used by educational software.</p>
+
+<p>Microsoft is now targeting governments who are purchasing XOs, in
+an attempt to get them to replace the free software with Windows. It
+remains to be seen to what degree Microsoft will succeed. But with all
+of this pressure, Microsoft has harmed a project that has distributed
+more than 1 million laptops running free software, and has taken aim
+at the low-cost platform as a way to make poor children around the
+world dependent on its products. The OLPC threatens to become another
+example of the way Microsoft convinces governments around the world
+that an education involving computers must be synonymous with an
+education using Windows. In order to prevent this, it is vital that we
+work to raise global awareness of the harm Microsoft's involvement
+does to our children's education. A great way to do this is by
+downloading <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Downloads";>Sugar</a>
+and helping a child in your local area experience free software.</p>
+
+<p><strong>How does free software stand up to this? Freedom 1: The
+freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do
+what you wish.</strong></p>

+<p><strong>1. Poisoning education:</strong> Today, most children whose 
education
+  involves computers are being taught to use one company's product:
+  Microsoft's. Microsoft spends large sums on lobbyists and marketing
+  to corrupt educational departments. An education using the power of
+  computers should be a means to freedom and empowerment, not an
+  avenue for one corporation to instill its monopoly.</p>
+
+<p><strong>2. Invading privacy:</strong> Microsoft uses software with backward 
names
+  like Windows Genuine Advantage to inspect the contents of users'
+  hard drives. The licensing agreement users are required to accept
+  before using Windows warns that Microsoft claims the right to do
+  this without warning.</p>
+
+<p><strong>3. Monopoly behavior:</strong> Nearly every computer purchased has
+  Windows pre-installed -- but not by choice. Microsoft dictates
+  requirements to hardware vendors, who will not offer PCs without
+  Windows installed on them, despite many people asking for them. Even
+  computers available with other operating systems like GNU/Linux
+  pre-installed often had Windows on them first.</p>
+
+<p><strong>4. Lock-in:</strong> Microsoft regularly attempts to force updates 
on its
+  users, by removing support for older versions of Windows and Office,
+  and by inflating hardware requirements. For many people, this means
+  having to throw away working computers just because they don't meet
+  the unnecessary requirements for the new Windows versions.</p>
+
+<p><strong>5. Abusing standards:</strong> Microsoft has attempted to block free
+  standardization of document formats, because standards like
+  OpenDocument Format would threaten the control they have now over
+  users via proprietary Word formats. They have engaged in underhanded
+  behavior, including bribing officials, in an attempt to stop such
+  efforts.</p>
+
+<p><strong>6. Enforcing Digital Restrictions Management (DRM):</strong> With 
Windows
+  Media Player, Microsoft works in collusion with the big media
+  companies to build restrictions on copying and playing media into
+  their operating system. For example, at the request of NBC,
+  Microsoft was able to prevent Windows users from recording
+  television shows that they have the legal right to record.</p>
+
+<p><strong>7. Threatening user security:</strong> Windows has a long history of
+  security vulnerabilities, enabling the spread of viruses and
+  allowing remote users to take over people's computers for use in
+  spam-sending botnets. Because the software is secret, all users are
+  dependent on Microsoft to fix these problems -- but Microsoft has
+  its own security interests at heart, not those of its users.</p>
+
+<h2>You can help!</h2>
+
+<p>Free software operating systems like GNU/Linux can do the same jobs as
+Windows, but they encourage users to share, modify, and study the
+software as much as they want. This makes using a free software
+operating system the best way for users to escape Microsoft and avoid
+becoming victims of these seven sins. Software and computers will
+always have problems, but by using free software, users and their
+communities are empowered to fix problems for themselves and each
+other.</p>

+<h1>Windows 7 Sins: The case against Microsoft and proprietary software</h1>
+
+<p>The new version of Microsoft's Windows operating system, Windows 7,
+has the same problem that Vista, XP, and all previous versions have
+had -- it's proprietary software. Users are not permitted to share or
+modify the Windows software, or examine how it works inside.</p>
+
+<p>The fact that Windows 7 is proprietary means that Microsoft asserts
+legal control over its users through a combination of copyrights,
+contracts, and patents. Microsoft uses this power to abuse computer
+users. At windows7sins.org, the Free Software Foundation lists seven
+examples of abuse committed by Microsoft.</p>

+<h2>How we got here</h2>
+
+             <p>Two years ago, Microsoft released Windows Vista, to
+                little fanfare and much disappointment, both from
+                users, facing a battle of broken software, drivers
+                and heavy restrictions, and from developers,
+                scrambling to bring software up-to-date to work with
+                the new system.
+              </p>
+
+             <div id="bill2">&nbsp;</div>
+
+             <p>
+                Two years later, Microsoft itself admits Vista
+                failed. Users were not ready to accept the huge
+                downgrade that Vista offered, and Microsoft has
+                attempted to rectify this with the announcement of
+                Windows 7. Windows 7, like Windows XP in 2001, has a
+                more modest requirement footprint, making it ideal
+                for low-powered netbook computers. However, unlike
+                Windows XP, Microsoft have deliberately crippled
+                Windows 7, leaving netbook users at the mercy of
+                Microsoft to control which applications they can use,
+                as well as the number of applications that can be run
+                simultaneously.
+             </p>
+
+             <p>Microsoft is up to their usual tricks again -- only
+               this time, they're also inserting artificial
+               restrictions into the operating system itself. While
+               not the first time they've done this, this is the
+               first release of Windows that can magically remove
+               limitations instantly upon purchasing a more expensive
+               version from Microsoft.</p>
+
+             <p>This is not new, however. In 1996, a furor erupted
+               over Microsoft Windows NT. At the time, Microsoft was
+               selling two versions of its operating system: Windows
+               NT Workstation and Windows NT Server. The server
+               version cost roughly $800 more than the workstation
+               edition of the operating system.</p>
+
+                             <div id="bill1">&nbsp;</div>
+
+             <p>While Windows NT Server included a series of server
+               applications not bundled with NT Workstation,
+               Microsoft maintained that the operating systems
+               themselves were, "two very different products intended
+               for two very different functions." NT Server,
+               Microsoft claimed, was suited and tailored for use as
+               an Internet server while NT Workstation was grossly
+               inadequate. Aiming to enforce this difference, both
+               the NT Workstation code and the license agreement
+               restricted users to no more than ten concurrent TCP/IP
+               (i.e., Internet) connections; while NT Server remained
+               unlimited.</p>
+
+             <p>Many users noticed that both versions of Windows NT
+               were very similar. Digging further, an analysis
+               published by O'Reilly and Associates revealed that the
+               kernel, and in fact every binary file included in NT
+               Workstation, was identical to those shipped in NT
+               Server. The sole difference between the two products'
+               cores lay in the operating systems' installation
+               information -- the server version contained several
+               options or flags that marked it as either
+               'Workstation' or 'Server'. If the machine was flagged
+               as 'Workstation', it would disable certain
+               functionality and limit the number of network
+               connections.</p>
+
+             <p>We call such limitations, antifeatures. An
+               antifeature is functionality that a technology
+               developer will charge users to not include -- it is
+               more difficult for Microsoft to limit Internet
+               connections than it is to leave them unconstrained --
+               and the limit is not something that any user would
+               request.</p>
+
+             <p>Unfortunately, for the companies and individuals
+               trying to push antifeatures, users increasingly often
+               have alternatives in free software. Software freedom,
+               it turns out, makes antifeatures impossible in most
+               situations. Microsoft's predatory NT pricing is
+               impossible for GNU/Linux, where users can program
+               around it. </p>
+
+             <p>A version of Firefox funded by advertisements would
+               be too--users would simply build and share a version
+               of the software without the antifeatures in
+               question.  </p>
+
+             <p>Ultimately, the absence of similar antifeatures form
+               some of the easiest victories for free software. It
+               does not cost free software developers anything to
+               avoid antifeatures. In many cases, doing nothing is
+               exactly what users want and what proprietary software
+               will not give them.</p>

+<p><strong>Re: Important notice regarding impending lack of privacy, freedom 
and
+security from Microsoft Corporation.</strong></p>
+
+<p>As a decision maker within your organization, you undoubtedly
+strive to make choices that seek to improve the working lives of your
+employees, enhance the relationship you have with your customers and
+potential customers and secure the independence and freedom for your
+organization to operate.</p>
+
+<p>For many years, companies like yours have relied on Microsoft and
+the Windows operating system. With the release of Windows 7 in
+October, Microsoft is selling the new version on a combination of fear
+and threats. They threaten to stop supporting older versions of
+Windows in the long-term, and because their system is proprietary (not
+free/libre), you are dependent on them to provide regular security
+updates and fixes. With the threat to withdraw their support, they try
+to strong-arm you into adopting new versions of their software even
+when you don't need them and may have a negative consequence to your
+ability to operate, once again abusing its monopoly position,
+explicitly inducing vendor lock-in.</p>
+
+<p>Like its plans to include DRM restrictions with Windows Vista,
+Microsoft's continued attacks against the security, privacy and
+freedom of your organization, are no mistake. Microsoft has a history
+of manipulating computer manufacturers into installing its products
+onto the computers you purchase.</p>
+
+<p>With its most recent actions, it further threatens computing
+standards by polluting and perverting the OpenDocument standard with
+its own XML-based file format.</p>
+
+<p>Because of Microsoft, many decision makers in America are now
+wholly dependent on the Windows operating system for their business
+computing.</p>
+
+<p><strong>The root cause of this dependency is proprietary software
+(not free/libre) and with the release of Windows 7, you have an
+opportunity to break your organization's dependency on
+it.</strong></p>
+
+<p>Free software is about freedom not price. Free software is
+software that you can use and adapt independent of any one vendor,
+such as the GNU/Linux operating system or the business productivity
+suite OpenOffice. Free software provides all of the freedoms Microsoft
+tries to deny, and is therefore better in all areas: security,
+accountability and monetary cost. GNU/Linux and OpenOffice are
+available from numerous vendors ensuring competition for your
+patronage and your freedom to change supplier.</p>
+
+<p>Microsoft's recent 10-K reports (June 30th, 2009) speak of free
+software and tell a similar story:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<p>The OpenOffice.org project provides a freely downloadable
+cross-platform application that also has been adapted by various
+commercial software vendors to sell under their brands, including IBM,
+Novell, Red Hat, and Sun Microsystems.</p>
+
+<p>Despite these efforts, actual or perceived security
+vulnerabilities in our products could lead some customers to seek to
+return products, to reduce or delay future purchases, or to use
+competing products.</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>Free software is more secure because you and the wider community
+are independently able to read the source code of and customize any
+program you use in your infrastructure. It saves you from relying on a
+secretive third party, and the public availability of free software
+code means that many qualified eyeballs, the security experts and
+researchers around the world, are continually studying and reporting
+on its integrity.</p>
+
+<p>Replacing all your desktop systems with GNU/Linux will give you
+independence from Microsoft, access to thousands of free software
+applications, and help break the social ill of proprietary software.
+Thousands of organizations have already moved to free software. What's
+your organizational plan?</p>
+
+<p><strong>Investing in Microsoft's Windows 7 will only get you more
+stuck and more dependent on them.</strong></p>
+
+<p>Take the next step -- evaluate your organization's opportunity to
+use free software -- and sign up for regular announcements on making
+the move away from Windows and to receive information about the work
+of the Free Software
+Foundation: <a 
href="http://windows7sins.org/signup";>http://windows7sins.org/signup</a>.</p>

+<p>Microsoft <a
+href="http://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+forced+upgrade";>regularly
+attempts to force upgrades</a> on its customers, by removing support
+for older versions of Windows and Office, whilst changing the file
+formats used by its desktop applications, leaving many businesses in a
+position where they are forced to upgrade to continue to use the
+software and document formats they've invested time in.</p>
+
+<p>By <a
+href="http://support.microsoft.com/?LN=en-us&amp;scid=gp%3B[ln]%3Blifecycle&amp;x=14&amp;y=8#Service%20Pack%20Support";>removing
+support</a> from operating systems and other software, such as
+Microsoft Office, Microsoft leaves companies with no choice but to
+upgrade to later versions of its software. The later versions of the
+software have file formats which differ from the previous versions,
+forcing companies who exchange these documents to also
+upgrade. Additionally, some applications refuse to run on older
+versions of Microsoft Windows, forcing complete system upgrades for
+what is essentially a document exchange format.</p>
+
+<p>This behavior is not limited to Microsoft, but also to proprietary
+software companies producing products for Windows. Adobe <a
+href="http://www.h-online.com/security/Guessing-games-regarding-Adobe-Reader-update--/news/110080";>regularly
+updates its software</a> to patch flaws used to bypass restrictive
+measures in its PDF readers, and Apple used its <a

+Update application</a> on Windows to <a
+href="http://john.jubjubs.net/2008/03/21/apple-software-update/";>coerce
+users of iTunes to install the Safari web-browser</a>.</p>
+
+<p><strong>How free software defeats this problem: Everybody who uses
+the software has access to the source code, this creates three
+distinct options for providing support for the software beyond any
+support that may be offered by the developers of the software:
+Firstly, a subset of users of the software may decide to continue
+supporting the product with updates and bug fixes themselves -- a
+group called Fedora Legacy did this for Red Hat 7.3 and Red Hat 9, for
+several years after official updates ceased. Secondly, a new project
+may decide to continue the development of the software by itself,
+offering users an alternative upgrade option in the form of a new
+release or distribution of the software. Finally, the user can hire an
+independent software developer, or team of developers to continue to
+improve and maintain the software.</strong></p>

software.  WGA gets automatically updated as part of Microsoft's critical 
update procedures, giving users little choice but to accept changes to the 
systems Microsoft can monitor. Many have claimed that WGA is spyware, and

+<p>But how do you know your computer is secure? If you're using
+proprietary software, you don't! With free software, even if you don't
+have the skills to evaluate the software, you can be certain that
+someone else can.</p>
+
+<p>Windows has a long history of security vulnerabilities, enabling the
+spread of viruses and allowing remote users to take over people's
+computers for use in spam-sending botnets. Because the software is
+secret, all users are dependent on Microsoft to fix these problems --
+but Microsoft has its own security interests at heart, not those of
+its users.</p>
+
+<p>In 2005, <a 
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Metafile_vulnerability";>a 
vulnerability</a> was discovered that affects all versions of
+Windows from Windows 3.0, released in 1990 until Windows Server 2003
+R2 from December 2005, with XP and later versions most severely
+affected. The problem, which affects the Windows Metafile image
+format, a format commonly used for clip-art and other vector
+images. Files containing specially crafted 'Escape codes' allow for
+arbitrary user-defined function code to be run when displaying the
+image fails. </p>
+
+<p>Security researcher, Steve Gibson, <a 
href="http://www.grc.com/sn/SN-022.htm";>believes the flaw may be 
intentional</a>, too.</p>
+
+<p>The situations where such files are viewed is wide:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Viewing a website in Internet Explorer.</li>
+<li>Previewing an image on your desktop or using Windows Explorer.</li>
+<li>Previewing an infected email in Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Microsoft even introduced a new class of malware, the macro virus --
+allowing seemingly innocuous spreadsheets and word processing
+documents to contain malicious programming code in Microsoft Office.</p>
+
+<p>Part of the issue of Windows security comes from the fact that that by
+default, administrator accounts are used and expected by many
+applications -- these adminstrator accounts also allow malware to
+attack the operating system.</p>
+
+<p><strong>In free software this would be treated as both a technical
+issue and a social problem -- if software needs to do things as an
+administrator, it needs a good reason to do so, and if it prevents
+users from doing the job without risking their privacy and security,
+it is anti-social.</strong></p>
