     Based on the evidence and his history, I can't really agree. If he was self-serving, why would be fighting for right to repair, why would be host a repair wiki, fund open-source projects and provide grants to open and repair orgs and projects (ie. https://futo.org/grants/legendary-grants/)? If he didn't care about software freedom, why would he announce, fund and release open source projects (ie. https://futo.org/)? I'm just not seeing it.

     You should absolutely do your own thing though, sure!

     Don't be stupid. It's stealing about as much as walking out of the room during a commercial. He also points out that if there are consequences, you shouldn't be surprised... But then I doubt you bothered to watch before commenting.

     @Dan_Ramos rossman has very little integrity in my view, to me he feels like every other slimeball from nyc. he holds genuine beliefs and stays true to them, to a fault. i dont know him, he just comes off as way too combative and a grandmaster diabolical politician who plays chess with the hearts and minds of those who adore him. he has a self serving agenda and cares literally zero about software freedom. he's a hardware guy after all, i am content to not fly under his ideological banner and do my own thing.

     @Dan_Ramos rossman should stop tell his users that stealing from advertisers means freedom from consequences, or something.

     @Dan_Ramos futo uses look but don't touch software licenses which are akin to polio, we eradicated them from the ecosystem in the mid 2000s. bringing them back is not a good thing.
