This work was done using my spare time, using skills I had learned in employment and in more spare time. I have experienced very little oppression in this industry due to gender, age, sexuality, or ethnicity. These are advantages not afforded to the majority of people globally.
I have experienced, alongside all other working-class people, oppression due to class: my time and money that could have been spent writing socially-useful, open-source code (or developing my skills in order to do so) has instead been commanded and sapped by property owners for profit.
This statement was written to keep in mind the social context in which code is written, what kind of people get to write it, and who decides what kind of code gets written.
