13. Funding Donations. Users paying for improvementsand/or removal of bugs. Teaching of languages and code to work a possible piece of open source software.

14. Funding Can be a problem. Often why individuals are swayed away from open source.

15. Ethics Computer socialism FTW? Meaning everyone works for each other. Parts of American culture sees socialism as a form of communism. Computers/Internet can be seen as a clean slate to organise the way we access and create information.
