The opinions in this article are simply fear-mongering and divisive of the programmer community as whole.
They are formulated on an irrational fear of FOSS being extinguished by the greed of the corporations.
So long as there is at least one programmer left with the will to post their source to the world FOSS will not die.
Let's also not be so one-eyed as forget to value equally the contribution of all programmers who write great software whether free or not, open or closed-source - we can still admire the fruits of their labours if not their algorithms.
FOSS community, please stop wringing your hands in fear, go write some code with them!
