What a deranged rant.

I actually felt sorry for them until half-way through when they pivoted into throwing shade on Anubis, an open-source DDoS protection WAF, that could probably help them solve their problem, by literally calling it malware.

I think they're just upset it's MIT-licensed and not GPL.

Apparently, all proof-of-work challenges are malware according to them, because they make your computer run code or something against your will. Though they helpfully pointed out it's "free JavaScript" and not "proprietary JavaScript". Whatever that means.

The FSF, perpetually stuck in 1997, is going to wither away into irrelevancy, and it's a sad thing.
