David's rant attempting to shore up his support for DSLogic by saying that IP theft is OK because it's so common. Obviously he is right that it's very common. I do not agree with anyone who says that makes it OK, and its particularly jarring to see engineers jumping on that bandwagon to save a few bucks. There are lots of cheap goods from China that are 'good value' because they had significantly reduced development expense. Enjoy your bargain DSLogic ;) [This is OT so I'll stop here] |

Hate people trying to put words in my mouth I never said, not even close, you really don't want to take that route. |

If you don't like it, block the repo from the rest of the world, but you don't have any right to remove my access to it. --- End quote --- It's your code and you're free to go host it anywhere that agrees to host it for you. If someplace doesn't agree to host it, they're under no obligation to do so. If they initially agree and then you act in a manner that causes them to decide to no longer offer you service, they are free to revoke it. At 1 nano-second after that decision, they are also free to host the software under terms that comply with the license. This is not just the legally defensible position (which I think it obviously is), but is also ethically defensible IMO. If you want to take your ball and go home, you're free to do so with all future changes. If you agreed to license the existing ball under GPL, there's no ethically defensible reason (IMO) to support the retroactive revocation of that. |

Not talking about the right to keep hosting it. If you don't want to keep hosting it, that's ok! But blocking the creator while still keeping the code... Nope! |

Interesting discussion, sorry for cross posting here, but it is kind related. https://www.picotech.com/support/topic40355.html It shows what Picoscope developers are thinking about the trigger in serial stuff.... |
