Amazon Boykott: Nachricht von Richard Stallman an Tim O’Reilly

+ +

+Diese Nachricht hat Richard +M. Stallman an Tim O'Reilly am 11. März 2000 bezüglich der Erklärung von +Jeff Bezos, Vorstandsvorsitzender von Amazon, gesendet, welcher aufrief, +Softwarepatente auf 3 oder 5 Jahre zu begrenzen.

+ +
+The idea that software patents should last 3 or 5 years has been
+proposed for a decade now, as a compromise that would eliminate most
+of the harm that software patents now do.  Support for this idea from
+Jeff Bezos is a good thing, since it may bring us a step closer to
+action by Congress.  Congratulations for helping to bring this about.
+
+But such a law is far from imminent, and in the mean time, Amazon is
+still responsible for its actions.
+
+We singled out Amazon for a boycott, among the thousands of companies
+that have obtained software patents, because Amazon is among the few
+that have gone so far as to actually sue someone.  That makes them an
+egregious offender.  Most software patent holders say they have
+software patents "for defensive purposes", to press for
+cross-licensing in case they are threatened with patent lawsuits.
+Since this is a real strategy for self-defense, many of these patent
+holders could mean what they say.  But this excuse is not available
+for Amazon, because they fired the first shot.
+
+Bezos's letter reaffirms Amazon's continuing intention to engage in
+unrestricted patent warfare, saying that the decision of when and
+where to attack will be decided by "business reasons".  I would gladly
+join Bezos in supporting a bill to limit software patents to 3 or 5
+years, but I believe we must continue to criticize and boycott Amazon
+until such a bill is actually adopted--or until Amazon makes some
+other suitable change in its own conduct to justify a change in ours.
+
+This does not mean insisting that Amazon must go so far as to
+terminate its own patents.  Deterrence with patents is an inadequate
+defense against aggressors armed with patents, but it is the only
+defense, so I would not ask Amazon (or anyone) to refrain from using
+patents for self-defense or for collective security.  Rather, Amazon
+and other software patent holders should abjure the use of patents for
+aggression, and adopt a no-first-use policy.  If Amazon does this, in
+an irrevocable and binding way, I would have no further criticism of
+Amazon.
