You're responsible for the technology you create. Unconstrained freedom is more often than not the freedom of the powerful to oppress the weak. Anything else is techbro ideology. FOSS ideology and techno-fascist ideology have the same roots in the freedom of information.

My call to action is unrelated to technological production, because technology doesn't solve social problems. Unionize workers in Microsoft. If you really want, build software to facilitate the construction and deployment of worker power, and stop playing around with the liberation of software. As long as it's "Free Software" instead of "Free people" you're playing on the side of the tech oligarchy.

Contributing to genocide for money is evil. Contributing to genocide for no money is evil and dumb.

Linux is used extensively for military and surveillance purposes. Licenses don't stop bullets.
