I think society has made it convenient for people to lend their creativity to someone else's vision. I don't think its a good idea for talented people to work for corporations that have no connection to the public good. I don'

I think complexity slowly developed over time to address certain needs of the time. Partly because software has been needing to do more. People and institution have become completely dependent on ease-of-use. When that happens software need

I hate to say this, but the OP is right. Nothing will change until we stop supporting the problem. I think the best course of action is to stop supporting corporate culture. People really do need to stop working for all corporations. We nee

This is the biggest solution to the problem that many people seem to ignore. If you want your communities to prosper, then the public needs to own the infrastructure that companies provide services for. Full stop. Anything less is giving co
