It’s funny that Indy is accused of taking artifacts from their people, since Raiders is the only movie in which he does that, though he does it twice. But he returns the stones in Temple of Doom, and he lets the grail stay behind, and he lets the crystal skull stay behind (though he didn’t have much choice).
Glow-in-the-dark heating elements…
But isn’t it such a weird coincidence that “apolitical” always happens to be the same as “whatever is best for moneyed interests?” Like being able to take free software and repackage it for sale?
Free as in freedom has been political since, like, the 1970s. I think the more important question is, when did people come to believe that free as in beer is apolitical?
The issue will have to be litigated, but… A lawyer once told me that there aren’t really “lawsuits” so much as “factsuits.” The actual judgment in a trial comes more down to the facts at issue than the laws at issue. This sure looks an awful lot like IBM strong arming people into not exercising their rights under the license agreement that IBM chose to distribute under. If it is ever litigated, it isn’t hard to imagine the judgment going against IBM.
