Episode Details

Not mentioning the elephant in the room, Martin and Chris take a closer look the vital role FLOSS is playing in modern defence systems and as part of military technology in general. Although the topic is not for the faint-hearted, it still shows the important part of FLOSS when defending core values very close to open source software in general: liberty, democracy and freedom in general.
