But I just fundamentally, axiomatically do not see anything related to how software is written and distributed as being one of those things. It's simple. I don't know about a "fundamental, axiomatic" proof, but the situation is that proprietary software is obscurantist in its nature and is in direct conflict with information dissemination and the openness that we herald our computing and the Internet as being so important for. Our society is destined to be dominated by digital technology and computers. All facets of our lives will become digitized and as a result, the ones who control our computing control the way we live. Proprietary software is tantamount to slavery, where the users are helpless and unable to exert control over the technology that governs them.
