For what it's worth, I don't feel that it would be "intolerant and
freedom-of-choice-denying" at all if Symantec were to say "in the PGP
forums you should not advocate other alternatives" because "the PGP
forums" are their turf. gnupg-users is GnuPG-the-project's turf so we
follow the rules GnuPG has chosen to adapt. It seems to work out well:
GnuPG-the-project doesn't bother Symantec, and Symantec doesn't bother
GnuPG. Everyone's happy!
