On June 19, September 18, the Suzhou Municipal People's Procuratorate approved the arrest of Hong Lei, author of the tomato garden, stating that Hong Lei's copyright XP modification and related behavior violated China's relevant laws. Within two days, the message was reproduced by the media of 19,200 large and small websites in China, which can be described as "universally known. So, let's ask, what do Hong Lei's hardcore elements think of Hong Lei's official arrest?
China is a legal country and seriously protects intellectual property rights. The official arrest of Hong Lei in tomato garden indicates that he has violated the relevant laws of our country. However, according to a special investigation conducted by Sina Technology channel on the matter, it is not difficult to find that, after being confirmed that Hong Lei was officially arrested, 11,977 new people were added to the online vote in just two days, 8,862 still said they supported the tomato garden, accounting for 75% of new votes in the past two days (previously 80.55% ). What does this mean?
According to this survey by Sina, there are a large number of personal computer users using various types of modified XP versions in China, forming a huge group (nearly 70% of users are using it ). They support tomato garden, mainly because the modified version of XP modified (BLOCKED) the activation function of Microsoft genuine XP, which is the commercial software win
XP features. Some people openly claim that Hong Lei's behavior to modify XP is "legal" and "creates new value", which is like a legal blind talk. After the procuratorates officially ordered the arrest of Hong Lei, they still publicly expressed support for Hong Lei's tomato garden. They did not take Hong Lei's approval for the formal arrest. Therefore, we can only refer to it as a "hardcore" (Hong Lei's). There is no other saying.
Where Will Hong Lei's supporters go in the future? How long can Microsoft XP still exist? Yesterday afternoon, I went to the west single book building in Beijing in the rain and found that the types and quantity of Vista books being displayed and sold are 2.5 times the number of XP books (around). what's even more surprising is that, linux books (occupying more than three bookshelves) are actually 2 ~ of Vista ~ Three times, among them, the new book "live learning and use Ubuntu" (ubuntu (China), written in 55 yuan) was only one book left. This shows that XP is really old, and time is moving forward. Another interesting thing is that I stood in front of the Vista shelf and read a book named "Vista dummies ".
In minutes, no one came to read the XP and Vista books, but in front of the Linux bookshelf, there was standing, squatting, and crowded with people. How did this happen?
? Are people beginning to like Linux? The hardcore members who are desperately working to support the modified version of XP should be awake. You may wish to go to the westorder Book Building!
On July 6, September 20, I went to Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications to attend the "World Software Freedom Day" celebration. During the conference, I sat down with Director Sun Jia Yi and asked him, how many schools in China held such celebrations this year? He turned back and called a staff member from sun and asked me: 46. I was surprised that 46 universities in China were engaged in such a "rebellious" celebration. During the Conference, someone asked the conference speaker a question: why did we not reflect the latest developments in Free Software in our syllabus? The Speaker of the Conference was really speechless.
(Note: At this celebration Conference of beiyou, I publicly demonstrated the self-starting USB flash drive and won a round of applause .)
