@fsf The biggest issue is that people don't know why does this matter, because even universities do not teach critical thinking towards software licencing. I think that's the thing we really need to change. And some people don't even know there are alternatives to consider, so if we just tell them there are options some people will get interested, but most importantly we must teach the teachers

@fsf I hate to say this but that student RMS describes will not get the attention RMS describes. The fight we have on our hands has roots in a much bigger problem with the type of society we live in today. It's going to take something bigger than what the FSF is attempting to do to change this. Our enemy is formidable and martyrdom won't fix this.

@fsf I almost feel like a large part of this goal has already been achieved. There's free software for just about anything. Sure maybe it's not always the fastest or convenient solution, but usually it is the "best" one. That may depend on who you ask, but a less convenient freedom respecting application, is in my opinion better than a convenient proprietary program. Let's just all, in one way or another, make the state of free software a little better, and we'll get there.
