"this is how you should protect the intellectual property that can be extracted from your research before transferring it to an economic actor" bullshit, utter bullshit, i will leak every single bit of code i write, i will slap the GPLv3 on it to make it radioactive to patent lawyers, i will leak my own papers to scihub. fight me.
i went into public research because the culture and incentive of tech companies, especially those you're pushed into as a young engineering graduate, is nauseating, and frontally clashes with my personal values. in retrospect it was naive to think i could escape most of that culture by going into research (especially considering my main supervisor's attitude), but seeing the active sabotage by our neolib government of research to turn it into a patent-producing startup factory makes my blood boil even more;
