    1. No, but I mean it IS possible to take steps against and live outside capitalism while inside capitalism is possible. It’s a grayscale, not “all or nothing”.
    2. Meaning, that open source not being paid is not inherently outside capitalism.
    3. Yeah, sure is. But they are crowd sourced paymemts, instead of corporate payments.
