Nothing to hide nothing to fear
>implying open source is the opposite of propritary
that is free software tho.
I will only use proprietary if I can see the source, or if others have done it for me.
Nowadays everything has some hidden pay model, instead of a clear one like pay x for software.
>or if others have done it for me.
all source code has been seen by a person somewhere, it didn't write itself
If it's open source, it's open domain. Nobody is suing you for using it in your projects.
>others have done it for me
That's my thesis, that's how you become vulnerable and dependent on others by trusting them.
your point?
do you conduct your own experiments to conclude that global warming is real?
no, we trust the consensus of the experts
non-free doesnt even allow that
>trusting the consensus of the experts
>thinking a scientist can be an expert
There are two types of people who write open source: amateurs and professionals.
I don't trust amateurs who don't have their hide on it and I don't trust professionals who're in cahoots with bad actors.
>some butthurt communist who thinks all software should be free is an "expert"
