Windows 7 Under Fire for ‘Treacherous Computing’

The Free Software Foundation has condemned Microsoft’s Windows 7 for "treacherous computing" that quietly takes away user rights. FSF has launched a campaign to educate people and even has a site that lists the seven sins of Windows 7. To be fair, FSF makes these complaints against any proprietary software but they’re targeting W7 in this particular instance.

The group, best-known for overseeing the General Public License (GPL) used by most open-source software, including Linux , will hold a rally at noon in Boston Common, where it will unveil a 12-foot-tall art installation depicting Windows 7 "being trashed," Brown said.
