Seeking perfect wholes is more religious than identifying specific areas where practical interventions can be made. Free Software works to protect the freedom

Seeking perfect wholes is more religious than identifying specific areas where practical interventions can be made. Free Software works to protect the freedom of individuals to use software that they own. It doesn't work as a magic way of making VCs money by companies giving server-side code away for free. The former is a politics, the latter is not even a religion. But sift through all the anecdotes and repeating of old Microsoft slurs against Free Software and it is clear that it is losing that religion that is behind the current debates.
