Re: [LUG] Action required against the BBC

 

I don't think I am really a "freedom fighter" but, I do agree with you and have added my comments. I object to the inference in some of the other comments that all Linux users are nerds / geeks. Even if they were, is that so terrible ? The techies are still quite likely to be customers of the BBC, which is really the point. However, the fact is that you don't need to be a genius to use Linux anymore and I am living proof of that !!! I wish that the rest of the world would wake up to this. I use Linux and sometimes I watch "Richard and Judy" too. I'll get off my soapbox now.

Subject: [LUG] Action required against the BBC

I'm going to cancel my TV license direct debit due to this iPlayer crap.

I'll still pay but only when it is due and not for six months in advance
as I do currently.

I urge all freedom fighters to do the same!
