Facebook Threatens Greasemonkey Script Writer
Another day, another abusive bullying attempt. This time, it's Facebook, which is apparently trying to bully the maker of a Greasemonkey script that cleans up your Facebook live feed by removing annoying app notices (such as all the crap your friends are doing in Farmville and Mafia Wars). It sounds quite useful. Originally, the script was called Facebook Purity, and Facebook complained about the trademark issue (a stretch... but perhaps you could see the company's point). So the guy changed the name to Fluff Busting Purity. No trademark issue at all. But Facebook is still complaining. The thing is, this is a Greasemonkey user script -- meaning that everything happens in the user's browser -- which Facebook has no claim over. If you tell your browser to ignore certain things on a website, that should be your choice. This add-on is there to help people who want it, such that it makes Facebook more useful to them. It's too bad that as Facebook gets bigger, we're hearing more and more stories of this kind of bullying activity.
Hhaaha, evo razloga zasto su zatvoreni sistemi omiljeni medju content providerima... Bezobrazni developeri su se drznuli da naprave skript koji sprecava stream bulls*ta koji mi serviramo!!! Moramo ih sto pre spreciti u tome!!! Odakle im bre pravo!
Sta bre oni zamisljaju da su? Da ne misle mozda ti korisnici da su oni vlasnici tih kompjutera??!? Odakle im pravo da kontrolisu ono sta im mi saljemo da gledaju? Kako bre smeju?
NE MOZE TO TAKO! ONO STO MI SALJEMO JE NASE NASE NASE NASE... i IMA DA GUTATE SVE!
Eto vidite, ovakve prljave stvari se nikad ne bi desile na finoj zasticenoj wall-garden "Disney" platformi... Sve bi bilo lepo i uredjeno, bas kako mi zelimo i svaka aplikacija bi bila proverena da slucajno ne nudi ovakve anarhisticke i subverzivne mogucnosti, kao sto su blokade reklama i ostalog crap-a... pardon, "added value"-a.
