Nokia encourages Linux developers to learn business and accept DRM

Nokia encourages Linux developers to learn business and accept DRM-general Linux technology-Linux programming and kernel information. The following is a detailed description. Nokia's Vice President said open-source developers targeting mobile platforms should learn business rules and accept rules such as digital rights agreements (DRM), commercial intellectual property rights, and SIM locks.

Dr. Ari Jaaksi, responsible for Nokia's software affairs and open-source operations, told attendees at the Handsets World conference that the open-source community should learn how the current mobile communication industry works. Dr. Jaaksi acknowledges that these concepts are contrary to open-source philosophy, but they are currently necessary components of the mobile industry. He said, "Why do we need closed equipment? What we do is harmful to the industry, but everything is normal from the current situation. These problems are very hot and emotional, but conversations are necessary. As an industry, we plan to use open-source technologies, but we are not prepared to play games based on open-source rules, because they need to work in the opposite way ."
