  Two common methods of signaling a special usage of a phrase are to
enclose it in quotes, or to capitalize each word.  Neither of those was
done in this case, suggesting the author was not trying to use the term in
its, sometimes, special meaning.  Also, if someone wants to restrict usage
of the phrase, they should trademark it.  Of course someone might point
out that, prior to Inflation of the Internet, lots of software was made
available on BBSes etc, with source.
