    I read the article, and yeesh, FUTO is… shady.

    I only heard of it because of Louis Rossman, but… I do hope that he realizes the fascist connections and shady ways FUTO grants certain projects and leaves the org, but IDK… I still like him sometimes, I guess, since he actually fights for right-to-repair across the U.S., even with FUTO and his weird anti-communism (I don’t remember when I heard it, but he’s definitely more or less a lib or libertarian because he also runs a small business repair shop)

      Rossman is a piece of shit and always has been, as far as I can tell. Reading the linked article, I don’t see how he could be unaware of the issues with FUTO. It’s unfortunate, but I think that in the long run him being a “great man” of the movement will only hurt the right to repair.

        Can you elaborate on Rossman being a piece of shit? I occasionally see some of his stuff and get the impression he’s a typical small business centrist libertarian freak, albeit a bit more personally endearing than average.
