You’re saying I should be forced as a developer to share the code of everything I do? That sounds pretty despotic, tbh.

- cryptocoder 7y agoI agree. But that’s not what I meant to say: only for life-critical software (think autonomous vehicles, airplanes, medical robots and devices).
- kick 7y agoWhy not? If a person perceives proprietary software to be harmful, as a lot of people do, then it only follows there should be laws against it. Or, alternatively, if they see it like they do speech, others should be able to decompile it, comment, and redistribute it without consequence.
