You're getting downvoted rather than replied to which is a bummer, because I understand your POV but have recently changed my stance on this. I used to be the standard kind of user of FB and Instagram who had friends and occasionally p

This is true, but there's also a murkier middle option. I used to work for a company that made a lot of money from its software patents but I was in a division that worked heavily in open-source code. We were forbidden to contribute to

Generally it's the hassle of getting it because in car-centric American cities, the rent-for-a-day renting process isn't streamlined. Rental companies aren't convenient (or possible) to walk/bus to so you need to get the
