Free Software Foundation to Punish Enforcers of Software Patents  

Reuters reports:
The free software foundation said on Tuesday it would start adapting rules for development and use of free software by including penalties against those who patent software or use anti-piracy technology. . . .

The idea is that if someone uses software patents against free software, that company or person loses the right to distribute that particular program and use it in their product.
