Slang for “FOSS leech”
1. An individual or entity whose products and/or services are built entirely upon free open-source software (FOSS). They never contribute enhancements, features, nor bugfixes back to the FOSS projects. Easily discernible by the number of complex feature requests they submit while complaining it’s not done on their timeline despite never donating funds to support development of the project.
2. An entity, usually that of a large corporation, that preys on small FOSS projects with groundbreaking ideas by imitating the codebase in a new language. The entity will then leverage the new codebase to market a new “as-a-service” product with a subscription or “pay as you go” model with varying tiers of enterprise support. May or may not wind up threatening legal action against the small project, sometimes through DCMA, to force the project offline and direct its users to their pay-for product.
3. An entity, usually an individual, that touts accomplishments or career-defining experience from a foundation built on FOSS projects but has no demonstrable experience in creating their own. These often overlap with “script kiddies” but differ in the fact that they have many years of relevant work experience with no capacity of critical thinking.

The job candidate we interviewed was a complete fleech. His resume listed him having 7 years of hacker experience and yet he was only able to name nmap and Nessus as his go-to tools. When we gave a scenario of a target machine having a port open and asking how he’d go about testing it, he only said he would search Google for the port number.
So I got done talking to John about this product the VP was so hyped about. It’s some blockchain bullshit using Elasticsearch and Kibana on Kubernetes to aggregate terms and search their popularity. It’s a complete fleech and a waste of time.
We got a sales pitch for this new “enterprise-grade” Linux distro that sells you a perpetual license for $40 a seat. When asked about their security patch and release plan, they let us in on the fact that they’ll sometimes patch vulnerabilities but refuse to submit it upstream to help the original distro address security concerns. That’s some Grade A fleech bullshit to try and convince your customers that you’re more secure.

Get the Fleech mug.A Fletcher is quite an interesting person. He usually has shiny and soft dark brown hair and is extremely attractive but his hair is not limited to other colors. He is quite intelligent, intuitive, and critical thinking. He absolutely LOVES anything colorful, especially posters. He also has a great voice and is decently musically talented. His favorite music artists tend to be a bit alternative (Mitski, M.I.A., Arctic Monkeys, Marina, Jagger Fin, etc.) but he does enjoy some mainstream music such as Doja Cat, Harry Styles, and Megan Thee Stallion. To be honest, Fletcher possesses somewhat of an artistic talent. His best friends usually consist of A, C, O, R, N, and S. He is sensitive and shows his emotions but will stick up for him and his friends. Fletcher also has an unreasonable obsession with the word slay and everything Nicki Minaj related. (Fletcher is also very very gay and is in love with L)
“Did you hear about the guy that jumped on stage at the Mitski and Harry Styles concert? Crazy.”
“I know right! Such a Fletcher. Although he did slay with Harry.”
