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 would take a movement whose mission is user freedom and whose arguments relate to morality and twist it so that the only thing that matters is software quality. Now, it’s palatable to corporations.
