How is iNaturalist not open source? They’ve got their code openly published and everyone is welcome to use their dataset. You can write some code and use their API, it’s pretty easy to get started.
I don’t get what your link has got to do with an online platform like iNaturalist. Biopiracy definitely is an important issue in general, but what is the point you’re trying to make here? If you don’t want to use iNaturalist, fine. But you don’t need to come up with nonsensical excuses…
I’m sorry l misunderstood the site. Are you associated with it ?? Over here, we need to carefully guard agriculture related activities from the clutches of the bureaucracy and the legislature. Are you aware how the farmers in our country had forced the parliament to repeal the farm related laws that they had made ???
I’m not related with it, they only have a staff of about 20 people. But it is a citizen science project, so in a way everyone actively using the site is related to it.
No, I don’t know a lot about local Indian politics. But I know from other countries about how export of living organisms is often a contested subject.
