  • I see your point but only partly agree. I can see why curl should be treated like infrastructure but I can also see that system quickly being misused as per above.
    I strongly believe in having public money create public code, as in Lenas link (https://publiccode.eu/en/) elsewhere in this thread. As the funding isn’t infinite I believe that is where it will create the most public good - at least in the long run. Of course there will be outliers and exceptions, and maybe curl would be one of those, I just don’t want to see our money flowing straight into the pocket of another tech billionaire with good lobbyists in Brussel.

















  • Honestly I simply found the statement to give very little to discuss.
    Regarding editing the Kernel command line; that would require that you already have access to your Debian install and have the rights to edit the Kernel command line.

    Regarding your link in general I find myself at odds with development practices that removes my own agency. I can see how for many end-users it’s good, just like how most car owners shouldn’t try to fix their car troubles themselves, but I would start looking for another OS if it starts pulling auto-updating á la Windows.
