A voice? You were an associate member when the mobbing had been on peak, weren’t you? Did FSF send you an email asking for your opinion? Or did, at least, inform you about a decision, while it still was preliminary? Yes, indeed, FSF, unlike some other foundations [1], makes efforts to gain independence from transnational corporations by funding itself not from their ‘patronage’ but from dues and donations from thousands of individual supporters. But to whose voice did they lend an ear when they had to make a vital decision: was it its grass root members’ voice? [1] https://www.linuxfoundation.org/membership/members/
