Proprietary software are undocumented immigrants – they are functional but source is unreadable
Except that we’ve criminalized the wrong one.

The halfwit responses here shows why. Too many irrational people lack fundamental independent logic skills… or it is all bots and convenient idiots as such an idea is potentially powerful against a failing system run by an autocracy

Abstract rational logic seems to be very poor in this place. I often forget how the elementary must be tediously explained.
Or… you’re not nearly as smart as you think you are. You might be extremely intelligent and well-read, but you are plenty fucking stupid. There’s no point in having ideas, regardless of quality or merit, if you can’t convey them such that people can understand them.

When you’re the smartest person in the room you are in the wrong room.
When pushing the smartest people out of the conversation, the manipulative goal is to convince them that they are the smartest person in the room so they leave. Therefore it is my duty as someone that genuinely cares about my neighbors to say, no, this is simple, it is rational. You are a halfwit or shill. I know what I said and its rational grounding in simple logic. I cannot fix stupid in anyone other than myself. Wasting energy worrying about such things is an irrational waste of time.

Governments fight undocumented immigrants for essentially the same functions as proprietary software. The software works, but does not mesh with the source of the host system for changes and ongoing evolution of a dynamic system.
The undocumented foreigners ultimately work and contribute to the total economy just the same, but it is the mystery of how they are compatible and what their I/O really is in practice that is so off putting and a scape goat when the host system is failing in ways the establishment is unwilling to rationalize objectively. The undocumented foreigner is ultimately adapting and evolving along side the host, but these changes are proprietary and masked from the host that is unable to plan and incorporate changes as an integrated whole.
This is a fundamentally simple abstraction for anyone on a rational logical plane of thought. Perhaps it is hard if English is not your native language.

Nope. Some people just want to politicise every little shit for fake internet point.

Holy shit, what a pretentious douchebag.
“I often forget how the elementary must be tediously explained”
The only person being tedious is you, your post makes no fucking sense because you’re trying so hard to sound intelligent and enlightened that you completely fail to actually communicate a salient point.
You think you sound like Sherlock holmes, but you actually just sound like Charlie Kelly explaining his invention to allow cats to talk to spiders.
