Thanks for fixing the bug and not telling anyone... Such that I've been using my workaround for 4 weeks.

This is the problem with big tech.

It's analogous to trusting someone blind with your data and getting nothing in return.

Very similar to how @googlechrome profited off mine and my coworker's contribution to the Chromium project without any credit...

Please, @googledevs...

This is why @Azure is winning in the eyes of open source...

It's rampant in @awscloud too...

Stop forking code and making improvements on top without any intention of upstreaming back!

#boycottgoogle? #boycottamazon?

Princess Leia's voice from afar:

"Please, @AzureSupport, you're our only hope!"

This is obviously the neoliberalist stance on the open source vs corporation/capitalism perspective but feel free to do some light reading as to the philosophy:

I propose here that this is a good place to start the discussion.

Because posthumanism vs neoliberalism needs a proper debate soon or else we're running into even stronger political divide in capitalism.

@elonmusk I'm curious your take because I think your understanding of the "meme economy" and 4chan /pol/ fits perfectly here

@satyanadella care to comment as well?

I have no credentials or PhD but I think a good starting point is the ethics taught in @asbruckman's class

I wonder if @gtcomputing cares to comment on this?

Maybe @StanfordCompute as well?

What about @eegilbert or Monica Sweat or Sabir Khan or any other ethically minded professor at @GeorgiaTech?
