Oh yeah, the “information wants to be free” thing shouldn’t be attached to techbros. Totally agreed. I think the meme is meant to show a devolution from a tech activist into techbro, but obviously not everyone followed that pipeline. I used to be in the “information wants to be free” and privacy-focused camp 10 years ago and I still am. There will be plenty of us.

it’s not a pipeline though, hacktavists don’t become tech bros, they fight them.
I personally haven’t seen that either, but that’s what the meme says. Not necessarily that I think happens often
pipeline means a thing
I know. You’re talking to me like I made the meme, but I didn’t. Nor do I think that this pipeline is really common
