More from Richard Stallman
"Not having children is an important contribution to humanity."
"And according to the Church of Emacs offering the opportunity to lose Emacs virginity is a blessed act."
"I put the term in quotes because US law dishonestly defines images of young adults even of age 17 as 'child pornography', despite the fact that most Americans of age 17 have had sex."
"Rejecting non-free software is an act of self-defense."
"The term 'open source' was invented to avoid the ethical issues of free software."
About Richard Stallman (born 1953)
American programmer who founded the Free Software Foundation and the GNU Project, whose copyleft GPL licensing made the modern Linux ecosystem possible. Closely associated with Linus Torvalds (Linux kernel creator who builds on GNU userland) and Eric S. Raymond (open-source advocate (The Cathedral and the Bazaar)). For an intellectual contrast, see Bill Gates, Microsoft co-founder — Gates's 1976 Open Letter to Hobbyists arguing for software-as-property is the foundational document Stallman's GPL was specifically written to refute — the two opposing answers to 'who owns the code'.
