Dear @georgetakei
Sorry to bother you.

I spent my career working on policy issues in Free & #OpenSource software. I didn't write the code for Mastodon/fediverse, but I invented the licensing structure it uses called Affero #GPL —

its licensing ensures equal rights between companies, individuals, hobbyists, & enthusiasts.

You've been a hero of mine since I was 11 years old. I have been crying with joy for 5 minutes upon discovering you use this platform.

Thank you for everything.
