moxalt: Do I have any choice.
If you are on your own, You have to pay money to eat. You have to pay money
just to keep land you own (property taxes). You have to pay money just for
being in existance (healthcare head taxes). To get this money, if you are not
one of the rulers, you must become an employee. To become an employee you
must sign away ALL your intellectual property you make during the term of
employment. IE: They own you.
My choices will be: become a servant/slave/employee and no more opensource
work thenceforth, or put a bullet through my head.
Atleast the slaves in the old testament could marry little girls and have
some happiness. They've taken even that from us now (Late 1800s in England
and Northern US states (1870s), Early 1900s for southern US states (1930),
~1950s for Japan and other conqured terr, 2000s for north african and middle
eastern states).
