Interesting article, I have to say.
I was trying to figure out where it goes so hilariously wrong. I narrowed it down to this part: ...because the Java APIs have been open, any use of them was justified and all licensing restrictions should be disregarded. In other words, if you offer your software on an open and free basis, any use is fair use. At one point it is talking about “API use”, and suddenly that becomes “any use”.
