      The solution to this is to organize with your coworkers and seize the means of production, and then vote to use only Free, Libre, and Open Source Software from now on. Easy peasy.

        I work in IT support, the options for good, and Foss software on the technician side of most RMM tools… Vanishing small, if any.

        There’s a lot of platforms that support monitoring and management on the client side, but when it comes to technician side tools, GFL. Most vendors don’t even mention it at all, fewer support anything other than Windows. FOSS isn’t concerned about the IT support folks because almost all FOSS is made by people who can build their own computer and don’t need support.

          I mean, at this point if you aren’t already on a list you are probably a bad person.

      Yeah, but if Microsoft spy on your work machine that’s the company’s problem. I still have to use Visual Studio, but not for anything out of work.
