    In principle I agree (I mean, see the “Socialist” up there) but Linux isn’t the thing that will enforce ownership of anything. See Android.

    It could be, but it’s now in the hands of the same evil corporations that made some guys start GNU and shit.

      GNU was started because of a broken printer. Jokes aside, RMS got upset that the company that manufactured the printer could not give the source code for him to modify it to make the printer better. That is when he founded the gnu project and the fsf.
