I think the irony is that open source is empowering developers, not users. All the new walled gardens wouldn't have been possible without open source. Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter .. you name it.

>I think the irony is that open source is empowering developers, not users. And that's why copyleft is still important!

Free Software gives users freedom, too. Consider using the (A)GPLv3 for your next project.
