Well it does not - in LIC where I work 99% of the people who conduct
internel audit does not what an "operating system" is or why it's to be
licensed or what GPL or EULA is . i've been here for 15 years .
It is like trying to cleanse social system by ppl who does not know name
of their father.
Right that I understand - although organisations like LIC / GIC /
BANKs / Railway
are not exactly using TAX-Money , it's an open market in
insurance/banks now
I stand corrected. But it is public money, nevertheless.
and it's actually people's investment money that they play with . They
have
"corporate" antivirus . And their main servers work on Linux or othr
Unix and
don't care about virus in user PC's ; all of my office win PCs are
virus reservoirs
with some historic strains still present !! If it gets too much just
call the AMC
guys !!
In all probability, the AMC guys are appointed by the ppl supposed to do
the audit. So the cycle of interest is preserved.
I've from time to time tried to impress the strengths of open
source OS's ,
they will not take it seriously . Then again FREE WINDOZE .
No use trying it. What do you stand to gain by preaching a bunch of
ignorants. Best bet is to teach the AMC guys that he can avoid a visit
to jail by using free software. That way the circle of interest is
preserved and bunch of pirates (AMC operators) are converted into bunch
of missionaries 8-)
