Lawrence Lessig speaks on Microsoft, antitrust, telecomms

Lawrence Lessig speaks on Microsoft, antitrust, telecomms: "Q: MIT's Media Lab has recently recommended Brazil's government to use open-source software instead of proprietary software like MS windows on its low-cost computers offered to low income families. Do you agree with the idea of developing countries promoting their own open source development ecosystem?.
Lessig: Absolutely. Everyone should, but especially developing nations. The opportunity for spreading knowledge about technology through this is extremely important."
