> The for profit industry has been very happy to integrate the fruits of the FOSS labor. Of course they are. They get free labour and their profits are therefore higher. which is the entire purpose of any corporation, to maximise profits. Being upset about this is futile, it's the artefact of living in a capitalist world. The free-software movement just isn't going to move the needle on that. They can either come up with a licensing model that pays, or get over it. But really, this isn't about FOSS, it's about engineers everywhere (whether in FOSS or working 9-5 in a software company) making ethical decisions and understanding the impact of their work, on potentially billions of people. Critically, I think having something to point at, "this is the oath I swore to", when talking to a boss, could be just the thing we need.
