●● Novell Chief Pressures Critical Blogger

Posted in America, Novell at 8:38 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

O

n the face of it, Novell has not done enough by ‘gagging’ critics in advance [1, 2, 3]. Now that there’s some opposition out there, Novell tries to shoot down the message/messenger. Freedom of speech? Not quite.

Watch this Novell employees, Chief Technology Officer in fact, leaving a comment without disclosure. Dana criticises Novell, so Novell comes to knock his message down. Who knows just how many pseudonyms are used out there by Novell employees? It’s hard to tell. In the past, we also saw Novell’s PR Director, Bruce Lowry, pressuring Dana after he had criticised Novell in his blog. it’s a pattern and Microsoft does this too. Novell’s Lowry has quit the company since then, only to be replaced by Mr. "Peace of Mind" [with patent coupons]. █
