Mueller doesn't use AdSense as far as i can tell however so unless google is
paying him to use blogger (which would be odd and interesting at that point)
he's not getting money out of google.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Agreed, some of his ramblings seem to suggest
sociopathy, narcissism, a problem with seeing the
truth for what it is, and a strong personal grudge
against his targets, but I wouldn't be quite so
quick to jump to conclusions. His grudges tend to
shift over time, and his focus changes after he has
received payment from a new client. That is not
the sign of a mind gone haywire and embarking on
a personal crusade.
An alternative explanation is that he is simply an
unscrupulous individual with some writing skills who
has chosen to put morality aside and write smear,
spin and propaganda disguised as "independent
analyses" for clients who pay him to do so.
Getting a Galaxy SII was a natural choice if you
want a good, modern smartphone for personal use.
This indicates that the Android fight is not a
personal vendetta - it's just a job to him.
The name of his blog is a natural choice to attract
attention. FOSS and patents are hot tech topics
these days, and obviously a lot of people are finding
his blog, reading it as if it were the independent
analysis it purports to be.
We have all seen crazy people on the Internet.
FM is most likely not one of them. He takes a
lot more effort to understand and disrobe for
what he is. Fortunately, I think his time is
running out. Making a name for yourself in the
manner he has been doing tends to make you
unsuitable for future contracts after a while.

<blockquote>I think he wants info on universities and organisations who
have received donations and commented on the case.</blockquote>
Re-read PJ's article above. The judge specifically said that he was not
interested in gifts to universities.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Hey, hey. This is Groklaw. You can't
smear people in ad hominem ways, even
if they are Florian Mueller. So keep it
civil. Please reread our comments
policy and abide by it.
This is to let you know why I removed
