I hope we get to a place where people like this simply generate an OpenPGP key/OpenSSL certificate for a pseudonym and just throw this stuff up on .onion and .i2p domains. A place where DMCA and copyright literally cannot be enforced because it's impossible to.
Android wins again!

It seems like a meme that GPL software developers are more ego driven than BSD/MIT software developers, and so bike shedding and new features take precedence over correctness/simplicity/beauty. I was a decade long Gentoo user who was frustrated by crashy software, switched back to pirated windows (I would never be caught dead paying for windows), only to find out the same trash developer habits carried over in my absence and now windows sucks just as much plus IT SPIES ON YOU!!! I'm now on Qubes OS hoping Xen is well enough built to assuage my anxieties.
