Reposting my comment from r/½kia.

Carmack has a great track record of principles and heterodoxy, including rejecting powerplay on technical merits, rejecting software patents at ID to where Creative Labs strong armed them with Carmack's Reverse patent (John should have patentlefted), donating to Ron Paul's 2012 campaign, and a one-time donation when ESR had some medical bills. A nice contrast to some other successful tech founders who cowardly or enthusiastically support Current Thing.
