the case of FUN*

-FUN boss sold 2 ideas in the .com era, now he calls himself a
philantropist..FUN is next.
-FUN began as a .es and called up a social movement!, now they are a .com
 (in their most sincere act)
-last week they got some money from skype and seems also google is investing
 ..little but investing...
-their FUD affects the work of the free networks, the perception that
users/audience in cities where they come to operate with the "social"
approach. their commercial appropiation of the "open/libre networks"
discurse, spoils the course of the wireless communities.
-another example on how capitalism digests anything...just open a blog
full of hype.

...and here "we" stand

and actually they sell the wrt54g for 25 euros with the pre-installed
firmware, im not sure if one signs a contract to not re-flash the
device? i will like to get some for:
http://www.medellinwireless.net or
http://www.altred.net
those tipical wireless community projects in this "developing" world

:P

...etc...
