"There are those of us," writes Doug Belshaw, "who have enough technical skills to be able to self-host and spin up a VPS to run Free Software. We can experiment and express ourselves however we wish." True. I am one of those, and (from my perspective) it has given me an advantage over the last 30 years. But it is long past time everyone else had similar freedoms. But how? Belshaw writes, "I believe we need to focus on enabling that positive liberty with Free Software under socialism, even if that means compromising a bit of negative liberty." I'm not sure exactly what he means by that.
