Random thought. The older I get, the more sense #RichardStallman's absolutist stance on free software makes to me. If you can't inspect, or have someone inspect, the source of software you've paid for, then you own nothing. You have no idea what's going on under the hood. You wouldn't buy a car if the dealership told you they were the only ones allowed to perform maintenance or modifications, so why do we tolerate that behavior from proprietary software vendors?
The #AfferoGPL (#AGPL) with its requirement that any network service using licensed software must offer, to the same network user, the #CorrespondingSource to modify and build and redistribute the same software
is so much more needed now. Demand the #SoftwareFreedom that any network service must be #FreeSoftware anyone can fork as needed, end their artificial monopolies of our online lives.
