fud wars (jargon) | FUD wars
/fuhd worz/, n.
1, [from FUD] Historically, political posturing engaged in by hardware
and software vendors ostensibly committed to standardization but actually
willing to fragment the market to protect their own shares. The Unix
International vs.: OSF conflict about Unix standards was one outstanding
example; Microsoft vs. Netscape vs. W3C about HTML standards is another.
2. Since about 2000 the FUD wars have a different character; the battle
over open standards has been partly replaced and partly subsumed by the
argument between closed- and open source proponents. Nowadays,
accordingly, the term is most likely to be used of anti-open-source
propaganda emitted by Microsoft. Compare astroturfing.
