   The reductionist message "demand open source software" strikes me as a poor message that has been misunderstood. it was never meant as a call to insist that you are entitled to have everything for free.

   it was telling you to lever your status as a consumer of commercial products to demand fairer and reciprocal relationships from corporations who were pushing that relationship in to the abusive, not telling artists and creators you deserve access to all their stuff at their expense.

     @rushyo I disagree with "never meant to", but it can certainly be followed at different levels, depending on what one's goals are.

     @rushyo Oops, didn't notice that you said "open source". Carry on. ;-)
