Avoiding vendor Lock-in is now one of the driving forces behind Open Source adoption in Europe. It clearly shows that IT leaders have understood that you cannot be at the mercy of a single vendor or foreign government. After all, you cannot control your digital destiny, if an orange temper tantrum can cut off your services at any second.

@kdkorte It's tragic that it has taken this long to realise. Now for the next lesson kids: If you want to use free software you also need to fund its development as a public good.

@infidel Next you are telling people, that if you save 500$/month with Open Source, they might as well give back some of it to the tools they are using.
