Rethinking TeX in STEM: Online Thu 29 Sep: 6.30pm BST (UK time): From the TeX Hour

[peacecop kalmer:]

Does such a source or authority exist? May I therefore respectfully 
suggest that if you wish your views to be taken seriously, rather than 
just more  misguided "authorities always tell us the truth" propaganda, 
you back up each of your assertions with a reference to a reliable and 
reputable source, the authority of which is beyond all reasonable doubt?

i had my moments with /Google/ and started to avoid using /Google/'s 
software after these. i removed my account from so-to-speak countless 
number of groups in Facebook once it appeared that i cannot set my name 
on my account as i want to have it. my five cents on proprietary thingy 
is that our world has great inequalities in covering people's needs 
because of artificially limiting resources to some and not sharing if 
it's possible and necessary. tex-live is a good example of sharing. 
/Google/ is a contra-example with /Zoom/. If people would not be so 
eager to buy proprietary /Android/ we had high-quality fully functional 
phones working with FOSS-/Android /with no restrictions on call-recording/./
