   @Suiseiseki wireguard is not proprietary. The only proprietary junk is the drivers for certain hardware, most notably the wireless card.

     @Suiseiseki I lied. I did have to install a desktop client for zoom because it didn't work in browser

     @charliebrownau @Suiseiseki openvpn is a dog. Wireguard is fast and doesn't impede performance in any way and is also basically zero config for her to deal with.

     @charliebrownau @Suiseiseki I'd also say moving anyone from windows or Mac to linux is a step forward in the jihad regardless of flavor.

     Wireguard™️ is not proprietary but make sure you call it WireGuard™️ or Jason Donenfeld™️ will murder you in your sleep.
     
     Also don't try making an unauthorized WireGuard™️ implementation for an unsupported platform or he'll send his lawyers.
     
     I love freedom

     I'm no lawyer by any stretch, but I don't see huge probems with any of these licenses. The best license IMO would be something like the WTFPL or something.
