On Mastodon I’m encountering people dismissing creative commons and demanding new open source licences which are… open except to people or organisations they don’t like.

For lack of this they are earth-scorchingly demanding the removal of their previously-shared wisdoms from StackOverflow under GDPR terms.

Fortunately the thread contains a link to this essay from 2021 which explains the classical concept of open source in an accessible manner.

I just wonder if the new generation actually cares?
