Open Source

You are not entitled to the attention of others. You are not entitled to having value attached to your complaints. You are not entitled to this explanation. - Open Source is Not About You

The point of open source is not to ritualistically compile our stuff from source. It’s the awareness that technology is not magic: that there is a trail of breadcrumbs any of us could follow to liberate our digital lives in case of a potential hostage situation. Should we so desire, open source empowers us to create and run our own essential tools and services. - On Liberating My Smartwatch from Cloud Services - HN
