6,000 words can be condensed to: Open source software is immoral because authors are uncompensated and because bad actors (his example was ICE) use it. The solution then must "come from a place of respect of other people." He concludes he has "no idea" what a people-centric collaborative model would look like.

No, I think you've said quite enough, none of it particularly insightful. Verbosity is an existential threat.

    "An existential threat" is a bit much, but I definitely thank you for the conciseness of your summary.

Terrible article written by someone who doesn't even know the difference between open source and GNU GPL.
