Think twice before supporting the Clippy movement.

Think twice before supporting the Clippy movement. The backstory is evil!

The "Clippy movement" is where you change your profile picture to Clippit from Microsoft Office. This is because corporations are removing consumer rights.

The person who started this, Louis Rossmann, seems to support consumer rights. But he supports a corporation, known as FUTO, that says "Computers should belong to you, the people."

FUTO funds "open source" organizations. They also build their own apps, but they use a Source Available license.
