Well but if you really want a story of open source in the 1980s it would have to include public domain, the problems of shareware and also cracktros and magazine code listings.

I don't really care about dominance of this or that. I just want to do my own thing and not get snaggled on your proprietary whatever. Oh, and I disrespect your cloud. Don't give your means of information production to someone who doesn't give a damn.
