Unless you have used ubuntu1 14:04 you will realize they are controlling your user name also ..I want to maintain my freedom of choice of user and password.
Copy & paste dont work unless they are controlling what you do ! They are geting to be “control freaks” Im going to raise hell about this even though I appreciate all that Linux has done for the world and the Ubuntu people have provided a lot and deserve credit and praise for all that ..but but my freedom is not for sale because your not charging for something …I thank them for all they do ,but I do not forgo my freedom of choice …..Its like accepting Government assistance ….! I really do appreciate all they do ,but I see something creeping in and am sounding an alarm ! Linux is touted as open source and if someone wants to add value and then charge for what they add I have no complaint about that ,thats a good thing.! I have praised all that have contributed and would do the same to the best of my ability ..I do not want to see open source get corrupted.or we go back to corporate monoploy like Microsoft & Apple .Volenteers spirit should be kept alive .Maybe Im overly sensitive to an over zealous security programmer ,but I am a freedon watchdog …….Others are voicing the same complaints and I think we will be heard by the Good people at Ubuntu ! Ill keep you all posted if they revise the security problem.
