Not cat photos but analysis of issues pertaining (or puuurtaining) to Software Freedom



Summary: Our plan to spend the weekends writing more articles about Software Freedom; it seems like a high-priority issue

THE growth of openwashing recently necessitated more and more responses (some of which too long for editorial comments in daily links). So last weekend we started the "Openwashing Report" -- a series we intend to continue this weekend. This does not mean that we will focus any less on the EPO, Campinos, Battistelli and so on.

"There's a certain urgency as windows seem to be closing on digital freedom..."Having recently (about 3 weeks ago) 'quit' Twitter I now have more time to spend writing articles. Weekends in particular will be spent writing about Free/libre software, GNU/Linux and technology rights (as per this site's name). We will try to publish more articles per day (at our peak about a decade ago we averaged at more than 10 articles a day). As I'm working full time (job unrelated to this site) it's more likely that weekends as opposed to weekdays will have more articles produced (counterintuitive as paid writers publish throughout the week and barely during weekends). There's a certain urgency as windows seem to be closing on digital freedom; we now have listening devices out there; Microsoft admits recording and retaining it all (it's a GAFAM thing). This is considered almost 'normal' now. How did we get to this point? How do we get out of it? Expect a bit of a focus shift. Let's hope that each Caturday can make a positive difference by means of reporting the ills. We're watching Free software adversaries. ⬆
