Not at all when you realize that the developed and a large part of the developing world is absolutely dominated by computing and software. We're heading towards a completely digital society of ubiquitous computing in every conceivable part of our lives, and there is no denying this. Whoever controls our software, controls our world. Free software isn't a first world problem, it's a gigantic and urgent issue. It's only a shame that so many people don't realize this. Open source works for a lot of cases (I wholly think BSD licensing is just fine for Clang/LLVM and disagree with RMS on this one), but it's just a pragmatic element. Merely a part of free software. Something being open source doesn't imply any particular redistribution rights and ethical guidelines by itself.
