I found this a worthwhile argument:

"The FSF should have nurtured and grown new leaders a long time ago, leaders who looked into the future, understand cloud and mobile computing and their threats to a free society.

...

I never heard anyone at the FSF ask what it means for a digital society that Facebook has been legally using free software to develop algorithms that modify human behavior. Quite the opposite, the problem was javascript in the browser for apps like Gmail."

I wish the author had taken his own titular advice, though...the post would be better for it.

well thanks, I'll give it a try later, perhaps my response was a subtle Ad Hominem to a very harsh Ad Hominem, In general I think we need to get pass falacies and have a real conversation.
