| What programs do you get to have full control over for free?
How about we go through your own list of programs that your control panel gives access to?
* WordPress: Free and open source.
* Drupal: Same.
* Joomla: Same.
* Bulletin Board software: Same.
* PHP: Same.
* Python: Yup.
* Javascript: Same.
* OpenPGP: Also FOSS.
At least half of your bloody toolkit is stuff that developers can easily have full control over for free. Stuff that you're charging a prospective employee to use.
