I don't think free software/open source has ever guaranteed the ability to maintain a specific project. Only the freedom to modify the software. They haven't been stripped of that core freedom from the GPL which is the closest thing there to what I think you're talking about.

The GPL is certainly “beholden” to laws as well, including a total lack of developer freedom which I personally disagree with.

A lack of freedom from being screwed over by companies stealing your code.

My last 5e character was a half aquatic elf, rogue warlock. He was a pirate, so think Cervantes from Soul Calibur.

It's all a distraction from the truth that you already don't own games.
