It's true from two points of view. They don't care about reading them, they don't want to. And they care even less about adhering to them. They'll steal software, copy it, and hack it. I think they only way anybody can do about improving licensing is to not put three-page contracts into the license. I'm not a lawyer, I can't follow half the stuff put in them, nor can most people. Most conditions cannot be enforced, anyway. And I'm sick of trying to read lengthy documents with a keyhole view of them (most licenses are presented to you in a small scrolling box, rather than letting you use most of the screen to read them). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
