No billionnaires at FOSDEM by @how

"If Jack Dorsey would donate $250 million to free software every year, certainly that would make a valuable recognition of his debt to the Ruby language and all the free software that he made a fortune on. But would it really compensate for all the assholiness Drew describes in this article? I think not. Billionaire money, although certainly long due for redistribution, should not be a way of passage downwards through the glass ceiling. They can look down upon us all they want, they’ll never be part of us, because what makes us, us, is not something that can be bought."

@320x200 @how Main sponsor of FOSDEM is Google, kind of a billionaire as well. They'd better pay taxes. Just saying.
