I did a bit of creative searching on DuckDuckGo and came across this:

Interview with her (not by her husband) moments after the attempt.
@jessamyn
Welcome to the world of conflicting bureaucratic requirements. When I did paperwork to move to South Africa, the South African government wanted me to do something (produce a certified copy of my passport) that the Belgian government declared illegal (you're not allowed to make any copies of any identity documents, not even your own)
The solution was to get a lawyer to help me find my way out. I'd suggest you might need to do the same.
Okay, yes. To me, open core is not open source, and a company dropping a free 'community version' but not taking patches for that one nor even providing a basic version of support might as well just do shareware instead.
I don't think the expectation of free support is valid. If someone asks for support on a public forum, I help them if and when I have time or let someone else handle it when not. If someone sends me private email, I send information on the public forum as well as a quote for paid private support.
Nobody should feel forced to do anything just because they happen to do open source.
Copying software costs nothing. Yes, writing software does. But to charge 100s of $CURRENCY for something you copy millions of times? Yuck.
I mean it's not a coincidence that most of today's billionaires made their money doing software.

Vaccines work *because* they don't kill you, and therefore make you stronger...?
It was pointed out to me that this post is now quoted on their website, and misinterpreted at that. Roy, since I know you're following this thread: No, I did not say that you deserve to be harassed. Nobody does. When I said "you deserved it", that referred to your continued false accusations in the face of evidence to the contrary.
Also, sorry to spoil your thunder, but quoting Daniel Pocock is not the flex you think it is.
You are not wrong. Part of this is because Keith Packard spent a few years at Intel teaching corporate structures how you upstream a driver for Linux into X11 (at the time) and Mesa:

The internet was not a mistake
Social media was not a mistake
Allowing Corporations to dictate and control both of these things was the mistake.
(1/7) I suppose #Fediverse isn't the place people are discussing #RobReiner. But after 36 hours of deliberating whether to say anything, I feel compelled. This thread will be long,but I start w/ most important part:
It's an “open secret” in the #FOSS community that in March 2017 my brother murdered our mother. About 3k ppl/year in USA have this experience, so it's a statistical reality that someone else in FOSS experienced similar. If so, you're welcome in my PMs to discuss if you need support…
(It's called 'AIStor' these days, presumably to be buzzword compatible 🙄 but it's really an S3 thing, SDK at https://www.min.io/download/aistor-sdk
