										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some don&#8217;t like that <a href="http://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/kindle-swindle-source-code">FSF is criticizing Amazon for defrauding users of their freedoms with Kindle</a>.</p>
<p>FSF is calling it Swindle, so <a href="http://perlbuzz.com/2009/06/free-software-foundation-helps-no-one-with-name-calling.html">some guy say it&#8217;s whine-like name calling, for instance as in &#8220;Andy-Mandy&#8221;</a>.</p>
<p>This reveals that this guy, at best, doesn&#8217;t know his English. It&#8217;s a totally <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">appropriate</span>* accurate wordplay, just check the <a href="http://www.google.pt/search?q=define%3Aswindle">definition of Swindle</a>:</p>
<ul class="std" type="disc">
<li>victimize: deprive of by deceit; &#8220;He swindled me out of my inheritance&#8221;; &#8220;She defrauded the customers who trusted her&#8221;; &#8220;the cashier gypped me when he gave me too little change&#8221;</li>
<li>the act of swindling by some fraudulent scheme; &#8220;that book is a fraud&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p>See?</p>
<p>Well, at least I hope <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Andy-Lester/e/B002BM2X5U/ref=ep_sprkl_at_B002BM2X5U?pf_rd_p=479564851&amp;pf_rd_s=auto-sparkle&amp;pf_rd_t=301&amp;pf_rd_i=%22Andy%20Lester%22&amp;pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_r=1RBQ37WZ416T9NDDKFGG">Andy Lester&#8217;s criticism is not because he may have something to gain from Amazon</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>* so I&#8217;m not a native English speaker&#8230;</p>
