I haven’t read the article but I’ll take an educated guess that this home isn’t necessarily earthquake proof, right?

I agree with most of what you say, nevertheless I’d like to underline that my context was broader and not limited to Linux and open source, but to a greater extend to topics like inequality, world hunger, wars, access to infrastructure, education and healthcare for example.

Avoiding tax loopholes and fair taxation for billionnaires could also be considered. Just saying. Otherwise I think that the idea of deleting all IP laws is just wishful (and naive) thinking, assuming people would cooperate and build on each other’s inventions/creations.

Given the state the world is currently in, I don’t see that happening soon.
