Ignorance of how bad that sounds to us indicates very deep brainwashing

Elaborate?

Based on the sidebar, I’m going to guess they’re opposed to restricting the flow of information through patents

At least it's not as common as it used to be. You don't see many products advertised as "patented technology" or "patent pending" anymore.

Is that a shocker?

What is libre culture?

Libre culture is all about empowering people. While the general philosophy stems greatly from the free software movement, libre culture is much broader and encompasses other aspects of culture such as music, movies, food, technology, etc.

Some beliefs include but aren't limited to:

That copyright should expire after a certain period of time.

That knowledge should be available to people, not locked away.

That no entity should have unjust control or possession of others.

That mass surveillance is about mass control, not justice.

That we can all band together to help liberate each other.

Rules

I've looked into the ways other forums handle rules, and I've distilled their policies down into two simple ideas.

Please show common courtesy: Let's make this community one that people want to be a part of.

Please keep posts generally on topic

No NSFW content

When sharing a Libre project, please include the name of its license in the title. For example: “Project name and summary (GPL-3.0)”

Libre culture is a very very broad topic, and while it's perfectly okay for a conversation to stray, I do ask that we keep things generally on topic.
