Really, there's no need to be so salty about that. I was just stating my disagreement and that I guessed you might be mixing up terms here that are not fully equivalent. If you're not agreeing with that I'm fine, but I wasn't trying to be aggressive in an means.

That's fair. I'm salty because maybe I'm a little on the spectrum and just get tired by having one part of an position scrutinized when it's not a critical part. I understand open source has many different licenses. But you don't have open source without FOSS. Additionally, Open source was born out of business needing these licenses to buy in. Therefore open source is driven by business and it's only surviving until they don't need it. Which is what happens when the culture abandoned is FOSS roots.

Business and profits should be terrified of the internet. Everything not bolted down should be replicated and shared. Music, documents, software, trade secrets, text books, shows, movies.

Everything.
