https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIr8Bk8QOHE 3:45 is when he starts talking about his "frustrations with the vocal minority of FOSS cancer"
Watching the video, he doesn't seem too found of FOSS or any type of anti-capitalist approach (at one point, he uses the word "communistic" in his descriptions of FOSS) Unfortunately the clippy symbol (as also seen in the post we are commenting on) seems less of a "We should move to an internet we control" and more of a "im nostalgic for when corporations were nicer to us" as if control like this has never been the end goal.
