He lost me around 25% in. From "hey, this is my belief system and this is why I believe things" he got to "fear X, Y and Z, dystopia is coming!" One of the problems he mentioned WRT compilers (proprietary, closed source addons to LLVM) would have happened later or fewer in numbers if RMS weren't stubborn about exporting AST from gcc. He also mentions defending GPL and fighting GPL-breakers. Being part of FSF he surely remembers "repurposing" code from OpenBSD without proper attribution. Cases like these were many in his presentation and it pains me when I see FUD like this. :/ Still entertaining watch though. Which, I guess, adds insult to injury: it could have been so much better.
