I am a big fan of having deep-pocketed corporations pay huge amounts of money to pay for open source products. I suppose this fits into that category.

- diego_moita 1y ago> deep-pocketed corporations pay huge amounts of money to pay for open source products. There are many names for this: co-opt, assimilate, bribing ... A lot of times it is like when Tony Soprano offers you a deal, or like when the U.S. made the NAFTA deal with Canada and Mexico. It feels good and awesome at the beginning but later on, when you become dependent on it, you'll have to pay an heavy price.
- rchaud 1y agoThis is a transaction between 2 giant corporations. What is there to be a fan of? Chrome is not open-source, Chromium is.
