Wow near the end when Linus takes his daughters on stage in the middle of RMS' speech. That's next level. Probably not scripted but it comes off as so undermining.

It’s from a documentary (Revolution OS) and is an intentional edit to juxtapose the difference in the two men. The camera pans — Linus was presumably getting an award too. He’s standing off-stage, he’s not walking in while RMS is talking.

If a person watching this closely without any knowledge of the people in this video, they may just see Linus as one arrogant brat who could care less about anything the person speaking is intending to convey.

Nope, he walks them out in the middle of RMS speech, rude².
