<h2>Amazon Boykott: Nachricht von Richard Stallman an Tim O’Reilly</h2>
<div class="infobox">
<p><i>Diese Nachricht hat <a href="https://www.stallman.org/">Richard
M. Stallman</a> 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.</i></p>

<p>
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.
</p><p>
But such a law is far from imminent, and in the mean time, Amazon is still
responsible for its actions.
</p><p>
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.
</p><p>
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.
</p><p>
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.
