When developer Brandon Thomas built free, open-source AI clones of Adobe's creative suites, it showed the power of independent alternatives.
But Big Tech is bound to lobby for tighter restrictions on reverse engineering to protect their monopolies.
Between mandatory terms-of-service updates that scan your private content with no opt-out, hidden cancellation fees, and endless subscription price hikes, software giants are making real digital ownership impossible.
At FULU Foundation, we believe you have the legal right to repair, reverse engineer, and fix what you buy. Reverse engineering isn't a crime—it's essential for innovation and digital freedom.

I spent 2 weeks in Europe with activists from the some of the world's most oppressive regimes.
They told me: “You’re far closer to this than you think.”
Freedom can disappear really fast. Have you noticed the red flags of digital authoritarianism around you?

Here is our initial review of @get_artcraft's Photoshop clone.
AI is helping us not just create more competitors without all the spyware, it will also help us analyze exactly what our apps are doing behind the scenes.
“Trust us” software is dying.

Enough is enough.
If the government wants to search you, they can't just buy the data. They need to get a warrant, like the 4th Amendment intended.
