> counterbalance we’ve had with open source in traditional computing
Created by massive activism, unpaid labour of millions of passionate people who otherwise are very expensive and have a very well paying job.
This is not a practical and sustainable solution for most things. In fact it does not work at in when we have to deal with embedded software even in something as simple and cheap as a phone, TV or a smart coffee machine, let alone a car.
We need a bigger stick, legislative solution with serious criminal sanctions. Misusing user's data should be treated like a bank misusing customer money - serious business that must be audited.
