It's time for a new agreement. A new balance

Grace Tame is a bloody legend

sorry to say, but that's not even an originally creative position to take. the same old tired parasitic argument has been made by copyright exploiters about music and movies, and by software tyrants about the GPL that you praise. power over others is not freedom. you're perfectly free to modify AGPLed software and use it for your own computing. the requirement only kicks in when you attempt to use it to gain control over remote users. they deserve freedom, and control over their own computing, as much as you do, no matter how convoluted a reasoning you might have to try to deny them the freedom they deserve, and every rationale I've ever seen that calls for power to take freedom away from others backfires: as other exploiters flock to gain and exert such power, you end up losing orders of magnitude more than you could potentially gain. if users don't matter much to you, do without them; you're not entitled to them, and no users is what you should earn for not respecting them

A testimonial from a new FSF member: "The world, especially in its current state needs advocacy of the Free Software principles more than ever. I joined to help advocate that cause." Support #FreeSoftware https://fsf.org

People around the world use sites that rely on proprietary JavaScript - often without realizing it. Nonfree JavaScript subjugates users in the same way as any piece of proprietary software. We should reject it. https://www.fsf.org/campaigns/freejs

Income from free software over 2 decades.

While I have obscured the numbers, around the second line is better than mere survival income levels for me.

Revelation 10:10 "And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter."

Revelation 17:14 "These (10 kings) shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful."
