Hey all, about to migrate my account to @fosstodon

#FollowFriday

It's not easy to find and follow people who write about things I'm interested in Mastodon. I would be very grateful If you can get me some recommendations who to follow 🙏

I like posts about:

®️ #IntellectualProperty: #copyright, #copyleft, #trademarks, #patent law, etc.

🎨 #ArtHistory

🎸 #PunkRock, #Grunge, any good #music

⚖️ #Constitucional law, #HumanRights

👥 #Sociology

and any other things you guess I would be interested :)

(Boosts are appreciated 🍀)

@chrisaldrich Chris, love your posts but the previews here on Mastodon give very little context!

Is there any way you could pull the title across as well as the link? 🙂

@eloquence Having worked there, the Foundation (MoFo) and Corporation (MoCo) were actually pretty separate.

The non-profit owning the for-profit is kind of a tax loophole AFAIK whereby MoCo pay for the use of MoFo's IP (logo, etc.)

In 2010 there were <5 people working for MoFo, then they scaled it up to focus on Webmaker, Open Badges, etc. (stuff I was part of) and then scaled back again.

Lots of mistakes, but I don't think non-profit bureaucracy is one of them!

For the first time in ages, I can say that was an excellent working week 🙂
@danstowell Not since the fixed term parliaments act, sadly. More difficult for a government not to see out its term as a result.
@codeforchaos Less snappy 😉
