    Look, it is fine if you like your NetBSD, but you don't have to spread your malicious misinformation about OpenBSD.

    OpenBSD used to charge for proprietary CD images with artwork and songs to fund the project. But the source has always been free and available for free under a free BSD license.

    A net install iso has been always available.

    OpenBSD is not only behind OpenSSH, and many other GNU-free tools, but also many of the BSD drivers, and actually campaigns against binary blobs.

    4-clause till yesterday BSD is hardly freer than that.
