TL;DR: a twenty minute discussion of the permissive vs copyleft dichotomy and why it puts a division between activist- and business-developers. Food for thought rather than answers or questions.

From the article:

Ask people affiliated with the Open Source Initiative about free software, and many will tell you that it isn’t really any different from open source. Free software just preached too much fire and brimstone, missed the rebrand, and lost mindshare.

Ask folks affiliated with the Free Software Foundation about open source, and many will jump to tell just how different it is. Open source strips free software of its values, pandering to the nonfree industry with promises of better, cheaper code, which doesn’t happen without unifying community spirit.
