-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Quoting Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle:
"We need a national ID card with our photograph and thumbprint digitized and embedded in the ID card" "We need a database behind that, so when you're walking into an airport and you say that you are Larry Ellison, you take that card and put it in a reader and you put your thumb down and that system confirms that this is Larry Ellison" "We're quite willing to provide the software for this absolutely free" When Smith&Wesson gave in to the statists, a death penalty was declared on their company. The means of execution being a total boycott of all company products by all informed freedom-loving people. The boycott is biting, and others in their industry have taken notice. Now, Larry Ellison, effectively the avatar of Oracle corporation, has decided that privacy is an illusion anyway - and that he is more than happy to collaborate in deliberate state destruction of the essential right to keep your mouth shut and your past to yourself. Partly Oracle corporatons seems to be looking for corporate-welfare (of course they're giving it away; the first hit is always free). Partly they just are that statist. Look at their attempt to red-tape their rival, Microsoft, into second place. The crimes are: (1) insulting the memories of those killed, by trying to hitch a free ride on the emotional backblast of the 911 attacks. (2) treason against individual sovereignty, by aiding and abetting the enemies of freedom (3) attempted murder of the rival company Microsoft. The sentence is: death, by massive boycott If you work at any level (management, design, or implementation) with Oracle software, you are asked to: - - Refuse to implement any new project using Oracle software. - - If you are already using Oracle software and can switch, do so. There are several alternatives. - - If you are financially tied to an existing Oracle installation, refuse to upgrade it or buy any further software from Oracle, except security patches. At your first opporunity, transition to an alternative vendor. - - If you are in a management postion, recommend against Oracle software citing this boycott as a reason why the company may become unstable and unable to hold up its contractual obligations. - - If you are working inside Oracle, give your notice. Please distribute this message to all your colleagues who work or might in future work with Oracle products. |\_/| |~ ~| This message brought to you by the Swamp Fox \o/ - -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org mQGiBDu34UIRBACUa+pXeCaYn2EzigUvaLa7gMIS+UegVU9IEGLuyAZuJ2aQSKUu 3VgMgGYr4Mr65sAOx02XY0poC4O19IW7pPJy/+sk7tmB/BVYpIvz5MZkH0MchI6d 2JpYH8bLBKtmvC2dnDGQcoijq1lIVpOmFMSKrSb9wkKDm62puw8lv8lx2wCg8pwJ HI7jFKOB5bHhrURkIPlPdy8D/38cns1LcEw/xSEG/w8FLOAnZKtwfHidaa24VtXv EJ59c3SJW3Uh/gU/UNaGOYJViTbMnB0WiMiLAPMObla4W5INjeiCUyN8azmPqbaz 68PoMM/t6PFawuoK4bVEOIEbwnlN1gQTfPc1qvI715fBlZ7KgN5eIOX+YRuQ98x0 ABO1A/9vYy2Aavx3XvpkTZJBqtuwHQ4KQpDWkunxefERCXCd3wP1jB8Fid3ph858 Qhys8VgLspawYFMA824XpTzlJslOWUYGdAak133LjqFewfh5nXvTkYqxAI3Lbizc WgHVkMkE4d0EiM6cOt3/wgd1XEUEAnVblX6yehIZFWjxblYFs7QgVGhlIFN3YW1w IEZveCA8cmVuYXJkQHN3YW1wLmZveD6IVwQTEQIAFwUCO7fhQgULBwoDBAMVAwID FgIBAheAAAoJEFhyDf4Ax7rjNUYAoMI9ue5Bg6Sce6Zrf0ag/JsDqwpkAJwN4kY5 OCVYzEbv6TV8B9S5vuAYqrkBDQQ7t+FIEAQAgKDa4EaSIPrDfGoFxP+F4s8Ub6Kn SF45tv82vGbuvfjbUKsrmJ++tBEauJZ/6OsAvmAnGSphF/Bg0m0pumgIaM+b384j w7ES6fAq031tXh3vyBgmu6FwrZR1fUlUddWRtPUULMJcWqhvVFqH/oPIqjQgPQ// KKhEfFWYXhUEEe8ABAsD+waVzuflbohkC6QsAKf4YHldegvt4WKBJsWHsm374fmn 9eEgC3Vp/W97QBOuiIWLfQbWx0+1/F13oE6EGYudP6vvM95FgtIZ9nqi25atc9o2 nO1hhI87S0vjGsXBCdy98Clg2j3Umw45cycd6fDzKZvoTEDBpyt8x/BgfNUX84kM iEYEGBECAAYFAju34UgACgkQWHIN/gDHuuNbKwCgorH03aoakreHjNFwNMoutfNt L4AAoJ5WVc1deWiVePbHcfbVQfhujEup =mNLr - -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE7t/CfWHIN/gDHuuMRAjxUAJ98fUSqAyMz3v1B3StR2DNl7krv4gCgtKtA nys3C0fjWxrHe+VU1T5DZ9o= =08/z -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
