To all the people who are upset? Why just dont use it. I dont use viber as my main communication system but my parents and grandma and their friends understand how to use it and they arent going to switch to some opensource system that requires know how to run. So some of us occasionally have to use these type of programs. At least now I dont have to switch to windows to use it.

You disagree with my opinion so I must be a troll right?
Piss off Sherlock.

I won't go as far as telling you that you have no brain but you are not using it efficiently if you are unable to understand that.

1) Its communication software
2) Its closed source
1+2 a person of 20 IQ should be able to make assumption and at least inform himself, but you instead switch to usuall yelling. Yes, someone wants source, whats wrong about him? If you don't think this way, no one is preventing you to think different or use different OS -> GTFO and don't smoke the sky!

Open or closed source
To me if it can be installed without being root: Then I am ok with closed source. I put those apps in a separate user and hope they stay there. Open source is not 100% safe either so there is always some risk.

You'd get easily a few people brething on your neck even with those odds.

What would be your counter-arguments to http://viberphoneapp.wordpress.com, especially:
1) What is your company legal address and why is it in Cyprus with PO?
2) Where does your financial support come from. For example, similar application, ICQ, which founder was also living in Israel at least made revenue by ads.
Sencerely, I was happy to have an alternative to Skype (which doesn't share well-known Skype black points), and then this.
Please comment, thank you.

Now when these vendors extend support to "Linux", what they hear from these idiots is "Source or GTFO".
You should just write your own software where you can guarantee access to the source code and STFU.

That "they are not all that way" argument is mostly useless. If you live in the city with population of say million people and just ONE person in every THOUSAND hated your guts enough to be thrilled to throw a fist or five in your face, you probably wouldn't survive even simple stroll through the streets. Even though 99.9% of the population wouldn't have a problem with you.
Point is, closed source is always a black box, no matter where it's made. There's no point in dragging people's nationality into the discussion, because that is irrelevant for this argument.

Originally posted by dee. View PostUmm no, please don't confuse politics with people, and don't paint an entire people with a broad brush. There's plenty of people in Israel (as in any other country) who don't agree with their extremist policies or have anything to do with MOSSAD and just want to live regular lives in peace.

Doesn't matter what country a software is made in. If it's closed source, you don't know if you can trust it, that's it. Do you seriously think software made in the USA is any more trustworthy than software made in Israel, China or Iran? Think again. USA is where the NSA lives, after all.
