and it's a massive waste. There could be *so much* social good potential in
#opendata. -
Indeed. If it was “free as in freedom” instead of “open”. If it was about nurturing a commons instead of privatisation.

Free is a legal statement about licensing just as open is. The terms differ. Open says you can privatise, fee says you can’t.
