  True, but by its nature of sharing more left wingers than other fields of IT

  Why would Libertarians use FOSS, giving away things goes against the central ethos of profits over everything.

    Based solely on a Libertarian Linux group’s poster I saw one time, I suspect the unregulated nature of things: people provide and build their own software, no one telling you what you can and can’t build. I don’t quite know how to summarize it succinctly but do you kind of see what I’m getting at? Since a lot of FOSS is communities self-organizing and decentralized (by choice, not by edict, since right wing Libertarians clearly have no issues with heirarchies so long as it isn’t a gov. mandating them), I can see it being very appealing.

    I suspect they absolutely insist on permissive copyright, though, so all the communal work can be easily exploited and stolen for the financial benefit of a few companies because something about the NAP and not restricting freedom including the freedom to be exploited.
