Almost anything one for-profit company is doing with their products can be adequately mimicked in a non-corporatized release. Or — here’s a thought — something novel could be born without having to be incubated and promoted by VC-funded or Wall Street-controlled firms. Decolonize your minds. We’ve been brainwashed into believing that we don’t have the means.
