I am currently being threatened by my former employer (they are "compelled [to] take action against [me]") for the way I am running ANN, and how this allegedly violates my employment contract with them ("interfere _in any manner_ with any business relationship between the Company and any of its customers or business partners"). This might entail drastic changes to the relative freedom of speech ANN has always allowed its visitors, or ANN might close down altogether. Updated 10:00 CET.

Legal threats? : Comment 677 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Don Cox on 08-Apr-2004 10:31 GMT | In reply to Comment 658 (Bill Hoggett): "Where computer technology is concerned, even five years is a HUGE amount. The trouble with the Amiga scene isn't just the technology, though Polyhead is right about it being prehistoric, but also the mentality, which really is decades behind everyone else."
One decade at most - two decades ago, the Amiga didn't exist.
I think you could say the same about Unix. And how about an OS that calls its drives A, B and C ? - just like cp/m in 1977.
I suppose a "modern" OS would be one that works well on a phone, with a screen resolution of about 320x256, limited RAM, and no hard drive. |
