After reading the article below, I feel that Open Source is essential to 
maintaining personal privacy in the world that awaits us in the future.  OS 
is a check and a balance against the power wielded by large  coalitions of 
companies that offer platforms, conduits, and content and are hungry for free 
demographic - no, personal - information.

My new rule: If it doesn't work with OS tools then my privacy is at greater 
risk.
