Free Software, not Open Source

If capitalists are not going to let us abolish copyright, we should abuse it, not pretend it does not exist.

I've got a bunch of hardware that plugs into specific services like Pocket (ebook reader) or Spotify (my hifi). If those services go away, or for some reason I don't want to use them, there's no way for me to get equivalent functionality with some simlar service (e.g. I'd rather use pinboard.in than pocket).

I would much prefer it if all of these services followed a publicly documented protocol and allowed me to configure which endpoint they talked to. I can't see this ever happening without regulation though.
