> It is time these companies really give back. Our system rewards those who take as much as they can and give as little as they can. The tradeoff here is that each entity having a certain amount of freedom makes us happier since we can be different and choose to allocate our resources in different ways. But asking corporations to give back when they don't have to is like asking your neighbours to pay more tax because the roads need repairing. You can't appeal to individuals, so the solution is simply to raise the bar on what that minimum is. The way to do that with software is to use copyleft licences. Support copyleft projects in any way you can and reject permissively licensed projects where possible. If we had stuck with copyleft we'd be so much better off.
