00:00:11,701 --> 00:00:15,330
What is kind of special about Linux
is that

2
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:19,202
it kind of uses a judo trick 
in copyright law

3
00:00:19,658 --> 00:00:25,650
turning the copyright law kind of 
against itself, in saying that,

4
00:00:25,690 --> 00:00:27,992
sure, we own the copyright to this

5
00:00:28,237 --> 00:00:31,767
but you get to copy it freely. 
You can do whatever you want with it.

6
00:00:38,219 --> 00:00:42,219
You can use it in any way,
you can change it in any way

7
00:00:42,461 --> 00:00:46,567
The only thing that we require is that 
when you change it, and you give it to

8
00:00:46,697 --> 00:00:50,567
somebody else, you give that somebody else
the same rights

9
00:00:56,238 --> 00:01:01,278
So when somebody else makes changes to 
Linux, I don't ask him to assign the

10
00:01:01,478 --> 00:01:06,908
copyright to me. So I actually don't have 
any rights to a lot of the system

11
00:01:07,168 --> 00:01:10,948
except the rights that other people are 
willing to give me, which are the same

12
00:01:11,128 --> 00:01:14,818
rights that I am willing to give other 
people. So what you will find is that

13
00:01:14,978 --> 00:01:17,359
nobody can control Linux.

14
00:01:17,489 --> 00:01:21,399
I don't have anymore rights than you 
have. If you wanted to,

15
00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:25,489
you could buy a Linux CD, you could get 
it over the internet,

16
00:01:25,659 --> 00:01:29,489
you could make your own changes

17
00:01:34,374 --> 00:01:44,404
[Trade-free means TROMjaro is yours]
