Sad news about a pioneer of internet freedom. He has earned his fair share of criticism and detractors, but he has also given a lot to the Linux and free software ecosystem. I personally run [email protected] on all my rigs to support open-source cancer research, I hope one day we can finally cross cancer off the list of humankind's foes.
If the human body or cancer were Free and Open Source, it'd be much easier to cure too.
Fucking closed source human DNA.
