I think the Open Source Initiative definition is horribly dated. Right now as an open source community we don't have the tools to make sure our technology isn't used by fascists.

    Yeah, licenses work only if you have the resources to enforce them. Global unionization is the most obvious end goal, but we should try to figure other ways to prevent this before we reach that stage. Right now I don't really know what else to do other than have some kind of ethics clause in the license hoping that it scares the corporations away and staying far away from facial recognition etc. technologies.
