Internet & Networking A recent post about Firefox and my general view of corporations and organizations has caused a bit of a stir. It even caught the attention of Asa Dotzler. He said "It's really hard for me to believe that either [Microsoft or Adobe] have the free and open Web at heart when they're actively subverting it with closed technologies like Flash and Silverlight." But are they really subverting it? Where exactly is the line between serving the consumer and subverting the web? I think the W3C should share in this blame.

Quality of articles OSnews promotes seem to have taken a nosedive since the days Eugenia(can we have you back on this site, please) stopped being the lead editor. So many of the author's interpretations are based on false assumptions, he's clearly posting with an agenda.

OSnews has lost its direction, and is no longer the site one visits to get updates on all sorts of home brewed and exotic Operating systems and programs that don't get covered elsewhere.

Almost all articles on front page are mainstream news that one can find on any other site. OSnews staff, please rediscover your roots.
