Very cool project! Louis is one of my favorite youtubers.

One catch on the site is no definition of FUTO? I looked all over and couldn't find out what the acronym (?) means. Future Use Tech Org? Fun Under The Orange?

I'm hoping it's recursive.

FUTO Updates The Organization or something

According to Rossmann's FAQ[1] it's 'supposedly "four letters that sound good together".......'. Someone did also add an entry on Urban Dictionary[2] defining it as "Fuck You, Tech Oligopoly"; seems that's the closest we're gonna get to an answer for now...
