Cost of free
An article goes into all the problems with free and open software. I drafted a response:
I didn't post it as the article is obviously clickbait nonsense, intentionally written to incite. While it's wrong on so many levels and shouldn't be worth highlighting, sometimes you have to define your opposite.
Definitely don't use a free browser or a free operating system (except all the major ones are). Anything besides Microsoft Office is unacceptable (never mind that their support is notoriously bad). Linux is open source and that's definitely been hijacked many times and caused all kinds of problems so now of course no one uses it except for most servers and most cell phones.
