@vivab0rg the problem is that he got stuck for too long on the wrong battles.

He kept battling against Tivoization and binary blobs in the Linux kernel, and lost track of the real problem - big tech stealing open projects, running them as-a-service on their private clouds, and keeping everybody as a hostage.

I've seen some of his recent talks where he still talks of binary drivers as the biggest threat to FOSS, while ignoring that out of the room there are some of the biggest companies in the world making a shitload of money by charging people to use installations of Linux, nginx, ElasticSearch or containerd on their machines.
