    @voxpelli Not having enough reasons isn't a reason to be against it. And there are plenty of reasons. Like volunteer contributions.

    @voxpelli That isn't a reason not to. !FS guarantees transparency/accountability, no lock-in, & that !Flattr can live on if the corp dies

    !Flattr is not !FreeSoftware for some reason. That might give it more credibility if they would adopt a free license.

    @fontana and why does Red Hat care about what the FSF has to say when it comes to offering users weaker defenses than possible?

    @fontana what case this context fits in that makes the fsf recommendation a permissive license, rather than a strong copyleft one?

    @fontana it is well known that any permissive license, such as Apache, does nothing to *defend* users' freedoms. defend != respect

    @lxoliva WDYM? The Apache License is a !freesoftware license, specifically recommended by !fsf for contexts such as that here

    @lnxwalt the basic premise of !freesoftware is that denying freedoms = mistreating users => wrong. OSS dismissed this issue

#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."
