This is what we all strive for. We want to be big strong independent basement dwellers who still live in their parents' home. Achieving total freedom in one's use of technology is the greatest accomplishment a Man can attain. There are rumors that when this happens, golden light starts to emanate from your computer screen and Richard Stallman materializes in your room. He has written the GPL to help you reach this state of nirvana.

In order to have true freedom, according to the GPL, you must have:

  • Freedom 0: The freedom to run the program, for any purpose.
  • Freedom 1: The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
  • Freedom 2: The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor.
  • Freedom 3: The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

A Jihad against open source and proprietary software! GNU/Jihad!

The Open Source community is fundamentally a bastardization of this philosophy! They don't care about freedom. They think the insane LIE that having source-published software makes for a better product. This is why you should dismiss Open Source and only use Free Software. The freedom feels so good!
