isn`t this thread all theo wanted? huge amount of publicity for free?AFAIK this grant was for university of pensylvania, which gave part of this grant for openbsd development.
DARPA DOES NOT pulls OpenBSD funding, no kind of direct contract exist between openbsd and darpa.
there were couple of other grants stopped by DARPA.isn`t theo - the openbsd leader - fighting for free speech, while publishing only half-truths and lies?

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding about where the line is indoing damage to others. Dunno - what is damage? If by my criticism someone has hurt feelings, i say, so what? Some people have so very very tender feelings ... - impossible NOT to hurt them.My advice to you is to do some research on defamation and libel cases to learn about what it is considered "bad form" to expect free speech to protect. To whit, the cases you cited do not, IMHO, fall into those that you might consider to be misconduct and where "freedom of speech" is not accepted as a defence.My impression is that Theo de Raadt should have expected his funds withdrawn, and his plea for free speech is silly. I think no foreigner can understand the great notion of free speech. And, ah, i have studied libel and defamation, just before i dropped out of law school. But then again, not being a US citizen, i also studied a different law, where free speech, libel, etc. mean something else. I am not allowed to say auschwitz never happened, which is protected by the free speech thingie in the US, but i am allowed to print sploit code or use KaZaa.
