After pondering for months on this I have come to the same conclusions as you and reading your link made perfect sense.
We are fighting to work harder because we value currency above humanity. What a silly fight. Most jobs can already be done by an AI and we should work towards that, not the other way.
What is the point of free software again?
The tech is out of the bag. The hard part is done, the part where you are learning the unknown is infinitely harder than copying it afterwards. Nobody will ever control it.
The point of the free software movement, and the licenses, is to make sure that in the future, they will still be free software. It's the Paradox of tolerance[0], expressed in legal language, for software source code. Digital goods, while often posing as tangible goods, actually have near zero replication cost, unlike tangible goods. This, combined with the special circumstances provided by free software licenses, enable a special economy, where the barrier to entry is the lowest possible, and the contributions to it are maximized for further enabling the special economy, for all current, and future participants.
