@hamishcampbell @cascheranno Seems to me the problem is neoliberal governments, and the missing piece of the puzzle is the need to identify #libre software / #FOSS for what it is, critical (digital) infrastructure and fund it accordingly. And 'public money = public code' where the way it's made public is *copyleft*, not weak open source. Then communities can compete on a much more level playing field with the current proprietary loci of control.
