 This push and expectations for everything to be open source is wrong. If you want to build something open source, great! Do it! But when people expect that everything should be and that they are entitled to it, this is a huge Problem. Coding, Designing, and any other creative work requires time and money which aren't free. There's nothing wrong with charging money for your work.

 In my opinion Digital property is still property so being told tomopen source it is the equivalent of someone telling you to open source your house and let people live in it free.

 i like you uno, but i very much disagree with you on this. not here to argue, but i need to see the code of anything i run, it's got to be open or i don't run it.

if you haven't already i encourage you to check out:

 Like I said, I support the idea of open source if that's what someone wants to do, but devs should not be pressured to open source their work.  
 And you think MORE state involvement would be better for open source?
