              No, but I mean it IS possible to take steps against and live outside capitalism while inside capitalism is possible. It's a grayscale, not "all or nothing".
Meaning, that open source not being paid is not inherently outside capitalism.
Yeah, sure is. But they are crowd sourced paymemts, instead of corporate payments.
