Artifex , Almighty of the Linux Ghostscript Postscript spokesperson , is suingDieboldfor breaking the fair use terms of its software system . Diebold used the freely - available software , which is o.k. , but when they authored some change to Ghostscript Postscript , they neglect to follow the very reasonable rule such utilization postulate . Biggies like HP , Xerox , and IBM all use Ghostscript legally and honestly , so why ca n’t Diebold ? They neither in public released the changes they ’d made nor paid Artifex for the privilege to keep the changes to themselves , and in the hippie - dippie share everything globe of Linux , that does n’t fly . Luckily our new President of the Universe Barack Obama won by a large enough margin that we ca n’t question the results , but sound god , it ’s beyond time to ditch this sharply stupid society and get an electronic balloting system that , you know , work .
