New prose highlight from Tom Giovanetti

My favourite think tank, Tom "I won't say who pays my bills" Giovanetti, has taken the time to do a little writing on the Yale A2K conference coming up in two weeks. 

This blog entry shows Tom at the top of his game. Don't miss it.

Among about a bazillion other things, Tom takes issue with the FSF Europe lanyard I gave him at the last WIPO PCDA meeting:

 
Expect to see lots of laptops running Linux, Free Software nametag lanyards,
"A2K Now" tee shirts and other shallow symbolism of the Free Culture movement.

I'd really love to know if he's ever used that lanyard for purposes other than strangling the neighbour's dog.

Of course, Tom is an absolutely legitimate representative of creator's interests. After all, he is an author himself, who has written this little world-changing book.

Comments

At least he got Free Software right...

...and didn't confuse it with Open Source or lower-cased it.

This was probably what amazed me most.
