I hated that course for many reasons, and the execution was incredibly flawed, but I can appreciate it in hindsight.

The main issue I had with that course was that I taken 2 years of philosophy in college and as the lecturer began describing categorical imperatives it became fairly obvious the lecturer had never had to write multiple essays on the subject.

The problem is *not* open source licenses, in that, bad actors violate your damn licenses all the time and few oss projects have the resources to fight prolonged IP legal battles - and that's a terrible way to spend resources that could be spent building better systems.

Corporations doing business with entities who exist solely to oppress, imprison and marginalize is the problem. No amount of legal faerydust is going to solve that problem.

Sadly, as I know all to well, non-profits in this space aren't exactly the most sustainable enterprises either. There is currently no grand public appetite for sustainably funding public software projects . It's a problem I work on more days than I would like.

I think non-profit structures can be part of the solution here,
@OpenPriv has survived primarily on cryptocurrency donations and through that we've been able to do, and contribute to, some amazing work. We need more innovative funding models, not speculative licenses.Prikaži ovu nit -
So far, individual cryptocurrency donations means we can spend time with marginalized communities, solve problems that they actually have, build their risk models into our software architecture, and generally have freedom that many other nonprofits don't have.

I don't know, but I suspect that model isn't scalable nor do I think it is particularly sustainable (our staff do have to consistently pay rent and buy groceries) - if the goal is to have more people developing systems for "good" then the core question is "how do we fund that?"

Tomorrow is the first annual general meeting of
@OpenPriv where we will sign off on our 2018 report & financial statements (which we will publish soon after). Now that we are in the latter half of our 2019 year, I still don't know what the ultimate answer is.Prikaži ovu nit
