    Many will scream ‘but FLOSS is political’. In fact the opposite is true! FLOSS is a reaction against the political imposition called Intellectual Property. It is ANTI-political!

      Actions done in relation to politics are political. That’s how it works. If someone is against the motivation of an economic system or a state, that is politically driven.

      Just as you are against socialism is political, being against proprietary software is as well.

      Reaction to the status quo, both against or for, is inherently political.
