what's so bad about closed source?
If the developer wants to make money, he will do so most with closed source.
and what if its collecting some data. I know this isn't an argument, but what is the likelyness they're using it for malicious purposes.
my gut tells me its very unlikely for most closed source, except windows and big software which have a lot of users and thus data to sell.
Unrelated, but how do GPL people know if a closed-source software is a copy of their program?
Its closed-source, right, how do they check if they don't have access?

I don't care

source code was a mistake.

The more free software there is around, the less IT jobs there are.

Is it weird that I believe in total communism when it comes to software, but in die hard capitalism for everything else?

> obvious non-dev argues about dev stuff poorly
/g/ in a nutshell. Another post by an ill informed consumer that's not even worth refuting.
I have so little (You)s left at this point.
Where do I go for rich dialogue with actual programmers, /g/? (besides IRC)

if they lied to you, then file a lawsuit on the grounds of misleading advertising
people are just going to have to collectively learn to understand the licensing docs more carefully and refuse software that can legally place their interests at unreasonable level of risk.

>>55085039
also, anon, most "actual programmers" as you call them like being productive, and figured out long ago that shitposting on /g/ kills your productivity.
only NEETs are going to have enough time to both talk on forums all day *and* build OSS.
