I don't recall much Public Domain in the 80's and 90's.  I recall a bunch of
pre-FOSS ideology licenses: share-ware, postcard-ware, no military-use-ware,
no government-use-ware, register-with-the-author-ware, etc.  Of course, one
"negative" of FOSS, at least from the perspective of all the no goverment or
no military use licenses, is that FOSS allows, even encourages, government
and military use.  Isn't that the same as the essentially the same mentality
as the "no corporate use" or "no for profit use" ideologies implicitly
espoused by most pro-GPL users?  Why did they accept military and government
use?

Which is "winning"?  Even China and India are, albeit abysmally slow,
shifting ...

Which is more preferred by the majority of those that must live within the
economic ideology?
