@gvs @frameworkcomputer @Dynamodreher Absolutely not.

Choosing to use Framework (given that they're more expensive than competing brands) **is a political choice**, based on their previous values.

Continuing to use them, now that you know they're happy to fund groups that would happily see e.g. other software maintainers deported, interred, or worse, **is also a political choice**.

If you haven't already, go read up on the paradox of tolerance.

@Dynamodreher @frameworkcomputer they've been explicit that it's a deliberate choice:

> we want to be transparent that bringing in and enabling every organization and community that we can across the Linux ecosystem is a deliberate choice.

@JxckS I am genuinely curious - what else would you need to have seen before you felt you could remove "appears" from that sentence?

@Popehat @mmasnick @nilay_patel the story might be "Substack's ToS is not strong enough" or "Substack do not enforce their ToS".

But as far as I can see, no one's making that claim.

So if their ToS is strong enough, and they do enforce it, this doesn't seem to be much more than a CEO who needs much better media training and briefing.

@Popehat @mmasnick @nilay_patel I read the transcript. Refusing to answer the question could easily be "we have a team of people who moderate. I don't have our ToS in front of me. I'm not going to make our moderation team's job harder by making stuff up on the fly in the middle of the interview".

Elsewhere in the interview he said that Notes is covered by their ToS, and the interviewer said that his hypothetical would be banned by the ToS.
