This thing with the founders is interesting (remind me to make my own license with "I take it all down with me if you destroy me" clause), but I want to know much more.
But who/what is the attack vector? Is it a coordinated attack and if so, what is the method and who are the backers? Are there other founders included in this trend? Granted, those three are pretty big but ...
- dnautics 5y agoI'm not sure it matters... Even if it was completely uncoordinated or by accident, it's not good for the ecosystem.
- at_a_remove 5y agoI would disagree. If it were coordinated, it could possibly be exposed and countered.
- dnautics 5y agothat's a fair assessment, but it's also already happened, so, even if the outcomes are reversible, it's still a bad "leading indicator", as it were.
- Melkman 5y agoIf it were a coordinated attack then the chance of successfully countering it with a loosely knit community would have been be slim at best.
- WesolyKubeczek 5y agoI think the loosely knit community in question has already lost.
- krapp 5y agoIt's always either Marxist feminists or agent provocateurs for proprietary software. Or both.
- at_a_remove 5y agoI think I would want a few more data points before signing off on the first one, but perhaps not the second.
