@drewdevault I find that paper (I would call it more of an article) to be way too aggressive.

I think the following article describes the flaws and problems with these philosophies a lot better, without lumping them all together and without ad hominem arguments.

It’s often very hard to make good metaphors about modern business practices in the tech industry. Imagine a stove that won’t heat your pots and pans if they are not from the same manufacturer as the stove. Imagine a pens and pencils that don’t write if you try to use it from paper that’s not from one of the pen manufacturers’ partners. These ideas are so absurdly inconceivable in other industries that metaphors don’t make sense, but these sort of practice are the norm in tech nowadays.

@whynothugo Unauthorized Bread by @pluralistic explores this metaphor really well.

> Unauthorized Bread is a tale of immigration, the toxicity of economic and technological stratification, and the young and downtrodden fighting against all odds to survive and prosper.
