Re:Ask HN: Is closed-source software inherently evil? by PeterZaitsev on Thursday August 22, 2024 @07:36PM (#41325166)

I think there are two main points 1) "Everything being equal" Open Source Software provides more value than proprietary. 2) Most of blowback you see is not about proprietary software but behavior of abuse or "bait and switch", which proprietary companies can practice because they have leverage
