It's you who is missing the point. If Netflix et al paid their fair share, you would not have to spam every HN thread with this copypasta, and you would not have to be here trying to convince me to subsidize WhatsApp. I sure hope you spend as much time pestering the corporations that leech off community donations as you do defending your HN spam.
Maybe with a better license that didn't enable such freeloading on the part of these gargantuan corporations, FreeBSD wouldn't need to go begging for donations from private citizens.

- tachion 8y agoFor some reason you insist on your actions towards party A being dependant on actions of party B, with whom party A has absolutely no connection. I think at this point we should agree that we disagree and part our ways in peace :)
