<div style="background-color:black;color:white;height:200px;text-align:center;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding:5px">Did you know? The wright brothers patented the plane, causing the plane industry to come to a screeching halt? This led the United States to develop the ability to patent certain designs. This is why certain companies, such as Apple, today, are patenting specific designs on their MacBook Air (Such as the rubber feet) to crush the opposition. It doesn't just stop with Apple though, many companies try to patent specific parts of designs, whether it be vague or specific just to "troll" other companies into bankruptcy, or worse. And it isn't just companies either. Individuals, such as the one who patented all of the MP3 idea, patented MP3 in parts so that each one would expire over time at different years. The last one, expiring in 2018, allowing another company to patent it, and troll us again.<br /><br /><br />

I, Ian Carlson, have done something terribly wrong by allowing myself to be corrupted and enticed by the ability to get paid software for free. For this reason, I have decided to never again pirate software, with the exception of defying software patents such as MP3 to have functionality that Windows normally has for free, in Linux or any other free operating system due to the fact that Patents are unfair to the low-class and myself as well as the Free and Open-Source Software community.

I am Ian Carlson, a man born in the September of 1987, I have autism, and am very high functioning on the spectrum; I was also raised rather roughly by one LuAnn Celia Mueller. I currently live in an apartment building in downtown Madison, WI. I do not have a job, and therefore live entirely on Supplemental Security Income and Supplemental Security Disability Insurance. The government funds my income (along with over 6 million United States residents. This does not count for Social Security income, or other welfare programs.) However, I am currently volunteering for the Dane County Humane Society. It's really the only way I know how to give back to Uncle Sam.

Fun Facts

In response, here is my promise:

I, Ian Carlson, have done something terribly wrong by allowing myself to be corrupted and enticed by the ability to get paid software for free. For this reason, I have decided to never again pirate software, with the exception of defying software patents such as MP3 to have functionality that Windows normally has for free, in Linux or any other free operating system due to the fact that Patents are unfair to the low-class and myself as well as the Free and Open-Source Software community.
