Excellent Richard Stallman interview

# on December 20th 2005 at 12:34 pm in Ideas & Concepts, Internet & Technology, Software

ZNet is running a nice interview with Richard M. Stallman (well, for the laymen anyways) that explains the Free Software principle, the movement, and the people.

It is really worth a read if you are wondering about this open, free software stuff you’ve heard so much about. :)

A noteworthy quote:

The idea is not just to produce a scattering of free programs that were nice to use. Rather, the idea is to systematically build free software so that one can escape completely from non-free software. Non-free software is basically antisocial, it subjugates it users, and it should not exist.

RMS, Freedom, Open Source
