l' #IA de #Musk s'appelle #Grok
En 2013 Pamela Jones PJ fondatrice du site #Groklaw qui s'est battu pour défendre #Linux contre les attaques de #SCO et de #Microsoft et #Oracle derrière écrivait
"Ce que je sais est qu'il est impossible d'être entièrement humain si vous êtes continuellement surveillé... J'espère que cela explique clairement pourquoi je ne peux plus continuer."

A pioneering site in tech blogging.
Final post (paraphrased via wikipedia):
"I can't do Groklaw without your input.... and there is now no private way, evidently, to collaborate." and "What I do know is it's not possible to be fully human if you are being surveilled 24/7... I hope that makes it clear why I can't continue. There is now no shield from forced exposure."
The following is the original text of the post. #Friendica posts seem to get elided in #Mastodon when the title is used:
10 years ago yesterday, Pamela Jones ("PJ") posted her last entry on #Groklaw:
groklawstatic.ibiblio.org/arti…
(the website hasn't been updated in 10 years either, so it seems not to have a 'https' address)
#PJ's contribution to the development of the internet and how it should work is immeasurable, and she is sorely missed.
I hope she is well.
10 years since the last Groklaw post

August 18, 2013: Pamela Jones concludes internet privacy is impossible and publishes her final post on #Groklaw (small update on 20th).
Groklaw taught me the importance of law to technology (and everywhere else), created a community of contributors that I deeply respected and prompted me to learn some useful skills so I could occasionally transcribe legal documents (under a different name)
Wherever you are now, Pamela, I hope all is well and Thank You.

Thanks to LWN for another good article, reminding us of the whole SCO lawsuit debacle, with lots of good commentary.
Also glad to see the Groklaw site is still running, even if no longer updated.
[...] Twenty years later, it is fair to say that Linux is doing a little better than The SCO Group. Its swaggering leader, who thought to make his fortune by taxing Linux, filed for personal bankruptcy in 2020. We survived a focused and determined attack that would have brought an end to many other enterprises, regardless of the injustice involved. But the SCO attack should never be forgotten, because of the ways that it changed our community, but also because, despite our much stronger position now, it could happen again. The Linux community has created a vast amount of wealth, whether measured in code or in actual money; when that happens, there will always be those who wish to steal some of that wealth. Hopefully we will be as lucky when the time comes to fend off the next one.
I miss #Groklaw and PJ.
