Without the mention of FOSS, these types of pro-market "solutions" will always end up dead in the water.

This is not just a matter of competition for its own sake. This is about guaranteeing users the fundamental right to technological self-determination, a right that corporate monopolists will not yield willingly. This is nothing less than empowering users to seize the means of computation.

Can't have tech self-determination if everything's a black box controlled by corporate entities.
