Re: Browser Based EMR's Threaten Software Freedom

1) You missed my point and jumped right into FOSS vs. proprietary evangelism. I said nothing of proprietary software. The scenarios I listed could all be operated using open source software. Whether an export feature exists or not is application-dependent, not simply FOSS vs. proprietary, and is arguably irrelevant anyway based on your points.

2) Your view of a data center offering no security over the alternatives is not supported by real world events and systems. You'll have to do better than just saying it is an irrelevant advantage.

3) Arguing the morality of these points is as irrelevant as it is impossible. But then, you already knew that.
