I will never get over how the pretty girl in the photo attached is LITERALLY Roko of the Basilisk's example of the bad ending for humanity
(awful.systems)

Roko’s twitter is an absolutely reliable guide to how recently a woman with dyed hair and facial piercings kicked him in the nuts again
Do you have more to read about the weaponization of open source? First I'm hearing of this
yep! there’s a little bit more detail in A Brief Primer on Technofascism, and the section where I describe the weaponization of open source is going to expand quite a bit with several more examples by the second draft of that post
as far as I know the term “weaponization of open source” is original, but it describes a pattern that goes back many years and seems to be getting more frequent as some corporations (which were wrongly seen as being good faith participants in the commons and given an outsized amount of control) get more comfortable with openly using techfash methods
Ahh okay. Yeah ive heard of that behavior to since extent, abuse of open source in various ways. Thanks for the read!
