The was the straw (perhaps heavy straw) that broke the camel’s back. The tech sector has had enough of Stallman’s angry-and-esoteric commentaries.

Stallman should be commended for his contributions to GNU. He really should. But he has ranted for years in an insulting and demeaning manner – without any major sanction (beyond being isolated outside of Big Tech). That changed today.

If this should have been the straw that broke that back or not, will be debated for years to come. But it has come.
