This doesn't seem like a good analysis to me. How many consumers use Linux? Let's see, how many Android devices are there? And what about Firefox? And then he cites the internet as an example, but dismisses it for no apparent reason. The article reads as very condescending to engineers/technologists. It seems like the author thinks that technologists are out-of-touch geeks and need his e enlightened guidance to show them back to civilized society. And the end makes no sense to me: "own our own data, tools, and derived intelligence — what I call our digital selves — and avoid becoming a society of digital serfs". So, he wants things to be so easy to use that you don't have to know anything about how they work, but he also wants people to be in control of their digital destiny? It doesn't work like that. Easy to use is great, but without knowing something about how the technology works you will always be a slave to it. No matter how rich you are, if you don't even know how to cook or clean, you will be a slave to your cooks and cleaners. The only thing he has to offer is "Experience Driven Open-Source", which is incredibly vague. I say, go for it, as long as you aren't asking for my money to do it. I hope it produces some amazing things. (I set aside the political garbage at the beginning of the article.)
