@zzt@mas.to Who is FUTO? I eventually found its web page and it says some standard free software stuff. It's apparently a for-profit company founded by Eron Wolf, but I can't find anything else about him.

@foolishowl@social.coop @zzt@mas.to FUTO seems to be connected to Louis Rossmann, and both Wolf and Rossmann are on Drew DeVault's "weird little guys" list which has been doing the rounds. Personally I really dislike the idea of this list and especially its tendency to imply guilt by association. Also as a little guy I find the name offensive. Anyway... I'm tired of seeing (and looking for) the bad in everyone. NetBSD feels like a step away from the madness, and maybe some of us can contribute back to it, even though as @zzt@mas.to points out, it won't prevent the exact same pox that has befallen Linux, so public resistance and dissent are still needed.
