You are a senior executive at Adobe.

The CEO of Adobe summons you in his office.

You are in charge of creating a secret task force. The goal is to systematically undermine open source software such as Krita, Inkscape, Kdenlive or GIMP. You have a $50 million budget. Nobody in the company knows about this project except you and Adobe’s CEO.

What would you do?

    I’d embezzle a bunch of the money, then spend the rest on good-faith contributions to the software in question, insisting that this was just stage 1 of the plan. There is no stage 2.

      I can’t say you understood the assignment, but I can say you are good people. I mean… kinda. Embezzlement is a bit sketch.

        Embezzlement is a bit sketch

        Embezzlement from billion dollar corporations is a moral duty whenever the opportunity presents itself, so long as that embezzled money gets redistributed appropriately, Robin-Hood style.
