I hate antichrist meme template.

two people wearing helmets with logos of big corporations are raiding a house. The text below them reads, “we’ve got you surrounded, use our dis-services”.

the person whose house is being raided is hiding, holding a gun with logos of GNU, Linux, Lineageos, Firefox, and Lemmy. The text above him says, “I hate corporations, I hate crony-capitalism.”

    Hmmm, I’m increasingly wary of FOSS software as well.

    Depends on the license a project uses. GPL should be fine to prevent corporate exploitation.

    The Software Freedom Conservancy lawsuit alleges that Vizio’s TV products, built on its SmartCast system, contain software that Vizio unfairly appropriated from a community of developers who intended consumers to have very specific rights to modify, improve, share, and reinstall modified versions of the software.

    According to the lawsuit, a consumer of a product such as this has the right to access the source code so that it can be modified, studied, and redistributed (under the appropriate license conditions).
