Re: GNOME 3.0 slogans

That's a good idea, especially if the audience is aware of the issues it causes them.

I think we should actually have different slogans for different audiences. I think the spyware/virus issue plays well to the average home computer user. (We could probably get some good videos too. For example, my stepson accidentally put viruses on his mom's computer and his grandma's computer but not our Linux box!)

Hello list,

someone else already mentioned "no spyware, free, no strings attached"
for a possible GNOME 3.0 campaign and that's how I imagine it:

Spyware could really be a selling point since often enough spyware
features hide as auto-updates. Those updates have become all too common
in the Windows world (no matter how small the app). But apps that came
for "free" usually fetch advertisement or create a user profile (or link
your user data to other services you are not aware of. Most prominent
example perhaps: browser toolbars).
