  • A reader has notified #Techrights that belatedly, perhaps where people’s job is at risk (we’ve heard of stories and situations wherein the employer’s view and a worker’s view diverge), the #GNOMEFoundation / #OSI did in fact remove some people from the hate letter they had set up for their monopolistic sponsors. We do, however, still see some names in there of people who asked to be removed, so it must be a very selective process. • 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 ⇨ http://techrights.org/2021/04/19/anti-fsf-petition-waning/ •●• #Techrights | Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/04/19/anti-fsf-petition-waning/          ☞
