@bkuhn Thing is, even though you could be at odds with Raymond or with Red Hat, you could still view them as objective allies because in practice we were all contributing to the free software commons that we saw as artifacts for user empowerment.

But that’s no longer the case: big tech has been freeriding, and now they’re building their ideal of free software without free software activists—destroying the commons we built as they move forward.
