They are making it impossible to host information online and drying up resources. Stop defending and supporting these malicious entities.
Open knowledge sharing AND copyright are both under siege. Whether you are for one or the other doesn't matter.
This is a shared issue that's hitting "both sides". They are taking away YOUR choice, replacing it with regurgitation & centralisation while the open internet withers away.

Thank you for writing about Gladys and all the other history about women who helped build and shape technology. I'd much rather read about them and what they did than the umpteenth vanity piece about the people who usually take credit for their work. ❤️
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Europe already contributes a major share of global open source talent. Members of the European Open Source Academy say fragmentation, not skills, is holding back EU's sovereignty ambitions.

Watching PrimeAgen lose it over how stupid Windows and Microsoft is, is cathartic to me. I have to use some of their systems for work and I just want to dive back on my adware free Linux laptop.

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?
