If android were GPL 3 the users would be protected from "tivoization" aka locked hardware. Too bad Google don't want that happen
"Sure, Chromiums code is available and you can modify and redistribute it. But if you want to send your changes to the main project so that more people may benefit from it, it is ultimately Google’s decision. This is the problem with projects that are not community-run."
Google is asshole. This shows than NOT all open source codes are free as in freedom. Stallman is right.
Why would all employers make such a big deal of WFH? If I were them I'd let anyone work at home as long as they do their jobs properly I don't care
You guys are the culprits. You love chromium right? And chromium is from google. And have you stopped for moment to think why chromium is free and good? Because Google wants you to get addicted to it. Google wants you to not feel comfortable with other browsers such as palemoon, librefox or Firefox. Once the majority of users use chromium, more and more websites will only work for chromium. And now Google dominates the web with its WEI thanks to majority of users who uses chromium. Web is not open anymore to begin with. It's dead since chromium took over.
Before chromium Apocalypse, there were many browsers engines: presto (opera), msie, gecko, goanna (palemoon) but now 99,9% of browsers are Chromium.
Google is very smart, give them free product with great features (chromium) and when the product takes off, subjugate the users with proposed standards such as WEI, FLOC etc.
Google never give a damn about users. Chromium is free because it is only tool for web domination
Believe or not, I still use core2duo CPU and GeForce 5300 and I run free operating system because newer technology contains shit
Digital RESTRICTIONS management / DRM is the core of Adobe

Wow Apple, a proprietary software which are known to treat users badly and enforce cencorship suddenly remove my podcast? I'm shocked!
This is why proprietary software subjugates users. Stallman is right.
