In the first edition of Linux and Closed Source, I discussed nVidia’s closed source drivers. This edition will focus on the Voice-Over-IP application Skype. Skype was initially released in August of 2003, and in the 5 years since then it has becoming the most used VOIP software on any platform with over 300 million users worldwide. Telephones have even been built around the Skype technology, and eBay thought so much about the technology that they purchased it in 2005. Skype is closed source.
