I used to respect Software Freedom Conservancy, they seemed to be aligned with my values. Lately... our values started to drift apart, and today, they burned any bridges that may have been left. There is one choice, and only once choice for a FLOSS project when it faces LLMs: reject them. Anything else is a sign that they're willing to sacrifice their values on the altar of... slop, burnout, and capitalism. Good job, guys. Good fucking job.

A decade or so ago, I signed off all my past, present and future copyright on stuff I contributed to Debian to the SFC, because our values were aligned. I no longer contribute to Debian, but I'm going to dig out that decade old email, and revoke my copyright assignment, and make sure they know why. Doesn't make a whole lot of difference, but I can't let the assignment stand.
