The internet is only open because open source built the commons beneath it. Without that foundation, every path leads back to a walled garden owned by someone else. We have to defend what's shared, not just build on rented land. #opensource #digitalcommons

The German federal government currently pays €481 million in licensing fees to #Microsoft every year.
I'm sure @zendis@social.bund.de could build some nice stuff with half the money and make it available for everybody else to re-use.
