The unifying factor is our focus on building *communities* rather than *individuals*. This inevitably leads to strong scepticism around Libertarian schools of thought. This is not to say that personal empowerment is seen as a problem in Permacomputing circles! If anything, we hope to build systems that free individuals to make more choices than they could under modern corporate-controlled computing. But we do not require individuals to pass some sort of skill test to join in.
