Last month the Netherlands passed #RouterFreedom into law: all ISPs must let customers choose their own Internet hardware and still provide tech support at no extra cost. That little box is your home-internet gatekeeper, and now in NL it can work for you fsfe.org/news/2021/news-2021…

This is the talk that inspired today's article on trademarking #OpenSource terms: trademark early and often, and think of it as insurance, advises @ShaneCurcuru in this freshly posted video from @Fossbckstg youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…
Should #OpenSource projects use #trademarks? Do they contradict pro-freedom principles? In this article we outline the benefits, both practical and philosophical, and explain our own strategy lightmeter.io/why-trademark-…

Decentralization starts with yourself: "If you think digital freedom is worth ten minutes, switch your primary email account to an independent provider (either free or paid), and start using it." I have done this years ago and I'm happily paying for it.
