Michael Feldstein gets straight to the point of the major impact of the sale of OpenEdX: "I'm far more interested in the ramifications of the sale on public-good collaboration in higher education," he writes. "I think Harvard and MIT have done significant damage to the landscape and to themselves.... It's the hypocrisy. The creation of EdX was positioned as a direct response to those dirty, grubby capitalists from Stanford who were going to privatize higher education with Coursera. EdX, in contrast, was to be a non-profit."
