From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looks like you're trying to fuck someone over too.
Would you care to post your real name, place of work and the city and state where you live? I mean if you don't want people to retaliate for fucking them over, then don't fuck them over.
If I screwed someone over, I wouldn't be surprised if they did something to screw me back. I don't start it, but I damn well finish it. The moral of the story is to not screw people over. If he needs to learn that the hard way like so many others, so be it. They shouldn't have to sit back while they get fucked.
You need to stop projecting your own lack of a spine onto the rest of us.
