RMS is going to be looked back at in history and people are going to wonder why so few listened to him, hes a man ahead of his time.
The other thing I expect to hear is "RMS is just so abrasive, nasty, weird, extreme...." Trite and old responses.
- gonvaled 10y agoWhile I mostly agree with you, I do think that once we have moved to a non-GPL world, nobody (or very few) will care or know about the alternative. People get just used to the current state of affairs, even if that means not having rights that they do not even know are possible.
