True, as long as the selfish one is a fellow craftsman. Once a tech giant comes in with an overwhelming interest of making the substrate (open source software and associated free labor) on which it grows its shit (products which bring in the money and surveil the hell out of you), it all breaks down and we have conundrums on what to do with it pop on HN every couple weeks.
