lembas,
There are some issues which the legal notice does not address;
1. It does not explicitly say whether the authentications cookies are
encrypted or not. Often crackers can access an unencrypted cookie and can
steal the user credential.
2. Authentication cookie is a functional data.
Hi lembas,
I think the trademarked logos are Non-functional Data and the practical
requirements are reasonable.
What I believe is a Big Problem is mentioning Ubuntu and Canonical as their
trademark policy forbids this. I've reported this at
A bug regarding this issue has already been filed. You can sneak over to the

Brief Description of Online Accounts Legal notice for quick Review***:-
I've read the GFSD [1] and I don't think there is a problem.
1. Looks like the notice says that the credentials and cookies will be stored
on your computer and will not be accessed by Canonical in any other way. The
GFSD mentions malware but I don't think this qualifies.
2. I think the

error message at the beginning of the booting process (quite after I select
the linux version in the grub menu):

I couldn't find any '--unrestricted' parameter in

Is there a particular reason you're using public domain and not just whatever
licenses the individual programs are in (perhaps with the exception of those
under the original BSD license)? Public domain dedications are sometimes
ineffective depending on jurisdiction; that's why CC0 has a

If Peazip works, why not use that? It seems to be libre.
Well, I can't really tell you what to do but I would like to advise you to
switch to releasing the code now and enabling donations without deadlines. By
doing so you would reveive much more donations as you can see with Trisquel.
People keep donating money even though the software already is
Unity (the desktop environment) is available under the GPLv3. Contributors
have to sign a CLA in order to get their stuff merged.
I was hesitant to mark it as a dupe as it included other concerns besides the
branding/trademark issue. Maybe I'll leave it to the Big Boys. :)
Thank you very much guys!! I was interested in Unity (the desktop
environment). I was really confused from a video that Richard Stallman talks
about Ubuntu and the malware feature of Unity. You helped me a lot!!
It is free, but with non-free stuff included, that's all.

You are right.
And thanks a lot for promoting my bug report to 'Comprehensive Trisquel

Please mark the original bug as a *duplicate* to comply with the Guidelines.
Happy Hacking...!!

I'd hardly call Trisquel bleeding edge; it's based on Ubuntu LTS releases.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on the licensing issue. The answer is a bit
long, so get ready. I'll add a copy of this answer, plus your questions and
comments, to the specification page.
As much as I would like to, I don't think that I am legally allowed to
license my contributions
Thanks for your offer, but it has been pointed out to me by email that you

decision to cancel my offer to make you the escrow. Please don't take this

It should be the same; just replace ffmpeg with avconv and run it.
Here's a few options.

LibreJS doesn't complain.)
LOL, so true. This is clearly what I meant. Compared to Debian stable and
the Libre distros, Trisquel is bleeding/cutting edge, while still maintaining
some stability.
I would say it is the best Libre Distro (or at least near the top) for those
that want the most current programs for the
Not totally accurate but point taken.
Trisquel being based on Ubuntu does pull from Ubuntu LTS which is mainly
Debian Testing, not Stable. Therefore, Trisquel's packages are more recent.
This is one reason why many people recommend Trisquel or Ubuntu for those who
