And everyone can get stuck with big corporation proprietary software that they have no idea how it runs or what it does under the hood

You can then make your own software. Nobody owes you free software.

You're not wrong, but I think it is increasingly harder (and perhaps socially taboo) to stay far away from proprietary software while still being part of a functioning society.
FOSS zealots love to dunk on capitalism, but unless you're prepared to go off-grid and live in the woods, and try to convince other people to be poor along with you, you might be very lonely.
