    Why not use a license that prevents capitalist firms from even using the software?

      Non commercial licenses aren’t considered FOSS licenses.

        Such a license would allow commercial use by worker cooperatives. I understand that software freedom as it has been defined excludes such licenses, but I would argue that this position is wrong. There is nothing unfree about preventing firms based on workplace autocracy from exploiting the commons and the workers that work on the commons and the workers in their own firms @linux
