inetknght: Knight of the Inter.net.

I am passionate about the internet. I write computer software.

I've neglected my blog. https://knightoftheinter.net/blog/

Systemd is annoying. https://systemd.software/

Yeah so I'm a C++ software engineer. I tinker with hardware -- raspberry pis, arduinos, drones, robots. I'm interested in simplification and/or automation of the day-to-day life of normal people.

You can't believe Microslop is force-feeding people Copilot in yet another way?

You might want to get your arguments in order. In one sentence you're calling OSS rugpulls a problem, and then in another you're claiming that proprietary products behave more ethically.

So which is it? Is it less-ethical to have provided software as open source, and then later become a proprietary product? Why? I see having source code, even for an old/unmaintained product be strictly superior to having never provided the source code no matter how much "respect" the company has for their users today.
