Also, such a shame the article introduces Sony as "the company who created Audio CDs which installed a rootkit on Windows computer to try to stop people copying music", as if Sony needed introduction, especially for people that read the KDE blog.
Maybe it would have been more effective to point them out in a matter-of-fact way, tell them to stop or to comply with the licence, and move on. It would certainly come across as more mature, more about problem solving, and less about name bashing.
I appreciate though it is hard to keep a level headed tone if it were to happen to me..., but there's no harm in trying!
