OpenBSD's logo is the pufferfish, the all-consuming might of meta et al destroying the city that was the internet of the 90s, un/intentionally pursuing users of the few truly open source operating systems..
Dunno, there's quite a bit of metaphor cum realism in this mix. I appreciate the fuck out of it.
