Hello, 2010.
But in the last decade, open-source software has become more of a corporate affair than a people’s revolution.
Gawrsh, Mickey!
Worth reading, because it’s a cascade of obvious lies. See this one:
“Open-source software has thrived and played a prominent role in the building of the Internet’s infrastructure.”
What a sad little ignorant cretin … that was Cisco. By no means FOSS.
One small step for a tiny brain; one massive, destructive, and intellectually diseased lie for mankind:
In many ways, MySQL embodies the ideals of the populist software movement known as open source, in which a program’s creator releases it to the world free of charge, and legions of volunteers contribute improvements that are also freely shared.
Indeed, as the New York Times said. Sold for about a $Billion. I’d love to see a volunteer contribution (improvement) that is freely shared. It’s all a 1970’s West Coast cultist Lie, isn’t it?

It’s better than that. It’s the Poster Child for bit rot.

“Mr. Fenton said that many open-source advocates had once hoped Red Hat would scoop up the top open-source start-ups, keeping these crown jewels out of the hands of proprietary software makers. But the company failed to go after other open-source companies initially and later could not afford to pay the high prices offered by larger companies.”
