actually i've got a list of other things that need addressing
* GPL4 should make clear that source code should be provided in plaintext not PNG files/screenshots/photographs/xeroxes of source code/etc (this is one of those obvious legal hacks that shouldn't be necessary but totally is, looking at you andrew torba). ie a manner of standard convenience for the user depending on the technology of the day.
* GNU Affero should be opt-out not opt-in
* What happens if SJWs get in charge of the FSF? The GPL should be hardened against that possibility
* I agree with eben moglen that we haven't fully thought out allowing GPL code to spy on users / allowing spyware -- an anti-spyware provision similar to the GPL3 'users must have the key' would make a lot of sense
* I agree with richard stallman (2001 nyu speech) that a future GPL (GPL4) could address the power differential between users of mobile systems in some way, that functionally gives more power to users
* ...also there's something about movfuscation that needs to be addressed imho.
* I think there's something inherently broken about forges that the GPL doesn't quite address. the github problem
* Freedom 0 requires the freedom to shield what program you are running from the government / authority. Without such basic privacy, you can't run the program as you wish. Merely running in the presence of state surveillance is not enough imho
* @sun had a suggestion on the old SPC but i forget what it was now.
