I tend to talk about how FOSS ties into a sense of Social Justice. I recently gave a talk at a local christian university about how FOSS share common values that should tie into theology and general social justice issues. I don't have time to type it all out here, as I'm late for work, but let me know if you're interested and I can write up something more complete.

Well this is some solid advice! Thank you!

I've been thinking about it the wrong way, and reading your email made me have that "this makes sense" moment. I will be definitely focusing on the things you wrote here like open standards and security.

Thank you again for your time, this is really huge help to me.

Cheers!
