    !TIL: exFAT has been adopted by the SD Card Association as the default file system for SDXC cards larger than 32 GiB. exFAT has been made by Microsoft, and of course it is proprietary. There is even no documentation publicly available. Bad idea, Canon! In Debian, the package exfat-fuse might help. #freesoftware https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT

#Freesoftware

Primary audience

all, free software advocates, Linux users

Definition

Free software or software libre is software that guarantees the freedom to be used, studied, and modified without restriction, and the freedom to be copied and redistributed in modified or unmodified form either without restriction, or with minimal restrictions only to ensure that further recipients can also do these things and that manufacturers of consumer-facing hardware allow user modifications to their hardware. Free software in most cases is also available gratis (free of charge). However the focus of the term "free" is on freedom. R. Stallman summarised the difference in a slogan: "Think free as in free speech, not free beer."
