Sammendrag
We have become the raw material for surveillance capitalists. They are relentlessly pursuing an imperative to extract and use our information and behavior for their own profit. Increasing measures are made to be able to develop and increase this extraction, at the same time there is a small subset of developers, programmers, contributors and entrepreneurs, who are pushing back. Development of Free Open Source Software (FOSS) makes it possible for anyone to audit and inspect the source code of programs or applications running on your device. This thesis will examine, if it is possible for FOSS to significantly reduce the possibility for large and small corporations to inject methods to extract human behavior from their users.
