The first place to start is for us to embrace GPL and shun BSD style licenses that allow tivoization. It's those kinds of licenses being abused and turned around on consumers that not only enabled the current state of things, but actively prevents us from fixing the current state of things. (sorry, that bug in your ps4 is there till we patch it, because you don't own your hardware and the software is closed. Or the firmware on your docsis 3.0 modem is out of date, but you can't have the firmware since only ISP's control that. Oh but your isp doesn't have the firmware for ityet.)
RMS may be a bit eccentric, but he was and is right, I think he was just a man ahead of his time. (A/L)GPLv3 ftw.
