Despite all the crowdsourced security and privacy benefits of FOSS, they struggle to scale across the world. Even though that may be changing, especially outside the United States (hosting, IM options like Signal, browsers like Tor and Brave etc), we still find governments and firms spending huge amounts of resources on closed-source software with opaque security landscape.
As security and privacy extend beyond data to death, as argued in your new book, how can this philosophy of crowdsourced security and privacy scale in the United States? I think this can be generally asked as: does market capitalism stand in opposition to security and privacy?
