I hate antichrist meme template.

two people wearing helmets with logos of big corporations are raiding a house. The text below them reads, "we've got you surrounded, use our dis-services".

the person whose house is being raided is hiding, holding a gun with logos of GNU, Linux, Lineageos, Firefox, and Lemmy. The text above him says, "I hate corporations, I hate crony-capitalism."

I'm not even sure what the message is. FOSS has never been more attractive or easy to use (on the large scale at least, never mind the weirdos freaking over xz). There's FOSS for most everything, in some cases better than most paid options.

Corpos gunning for FOSS? That's always been here.

They're gunning for the user, whom they wish to exploit. The user clings to FLOSS alternatives in an attempt to avoid having their data harvested, analyzed, weaponized, and leveraged against the user for profit.

Yes, Like I literally said: Gunning for FOSS isn't new.
