Sorry to hi-jack the general assembly thread to reply to the article on planet.
I personally tend to disagree with any extremist idea and have to say, even though I'd love to be in the world described in Daniel's article, I still am for compromises:-)
A world without compromise and tolerance is not different than the world full of dictatorship or slavery. I know it sounds like a paradox and it actually is a paradox. By surrounding yourself with the restrictions and walls you do nothing but imprison yourself and it is the same with proprietary software.
I feel that using a word like extremist or dictatorship is a bit strong.
My blog does actually include examples of compromises, otherwise I have simply tried to describe how I personally choose to live and how I feel about that.
Do you feel that everybody who lived a successful life before computers or Facebook were created was an extremist?

Daniel
