The president of the FFII points out that Neelie Kroes says about open source: "What if we are sued if we infringe someone else IP if we use this?"

Those of us who actually want to reform the industry and put users in control of their systems/devices will recognise that "Open Source" was selling a lie or got-co-opted by liars
The commercial exploitation of users won't stop until users exercise full control over their software or - more broadly - their computing (including data)
