Har bakat bullar. Händer typ aldrig. Men idag var en sån baka bull-dag. 🙌

Sommar och solsken mellan skurarna.

The historic Software Freedom Conservancy v. Vizio, Inc. case continues in Superior Court in California!

SFC announced that we recently filed an updated Motion for Summary Adjudication
(similar to a Motion for Partial Summary Judgement in USA federal courts):
https://sfconservancy.org/news/2025/jul/10/sfc-updates-motion-for-summary-adjudication-vizio/

The motion asks the judge to summarily rule that SFC has a right as a third-party beneficiary under
the popular copyleft licenses — GPLv2 & LGPLv2.1.

A direct link to the filing:

Also, please do reply to this thread for discussion all day today and tomorrow (2025-07-1{0,1}) with our Policy Fellow @bkuhn about the filing and more information about the Vizio case!


Keep in mind the trial is *this September* starting on 2025-09-22 in Santa Ana, CA & it's open to the public!

Found wild strawberries today! Lots!

My latest piece for The Guardian:
A government that claims to take concerns over crime, safety and national security seriously, while ignoring violent far-right extremism, will struggle with its future credibility.
Sweden has a long tradition of refusing to face up to its racism – past and present. But racism could still decide the next election.
