For current political commentary, see the daily political notes.
The sites in which people ask for funding (including both Patreon and Gofundme) require the donor to run nonfree software. For this reason, I would never entertain the idea of donating through those sites.
In addition, donating usually requires one of the usual payment systems that make donors identify themselves. Can anyone tell me? I would be willing to identify myself to the recipient person or organization, for instance by sending per or it a check, but identifying myself to a data base company is another matter.
I would guess that requesting and receiving donations also requires running nonfree software. Can anyone tell me?
