When Lerna changed their license to forbid usage from ICE collaborators a lot of people got angry because it was no longer free software" and was "mixing politics and sofrware". Big fuck you to those people. Would love to see a more formalized version of that license.

Respect for saying this. Since code is political, how do you balance these feelings with helping Facebook? They contribute to the same issues by using surviellence to influence how people vote?

My employment at Facebook is luckily strongly tied to production of open source software that I would be unable to produce elsewhere. If I quit then I would want to do the same work elsewhere except now FB can profit off my work AND replace me with someone who could do anything.

I also have the opportunity to be vocal internally and protest certain decisions that hold more weight than if I were on the outside

Figuring this balance out is hard for me too working in gov. If you're not visibily against some of what Facebook do, even if you're doing good work to protest internally, are you elevating Facebook's brand by doing cool open source on their behalf?
