Perhaps software freedom can make people hunger for greater freedoms. I don't see any moral conflict.

- rbanffy 17y agoHow can you exercise the freedoms free software gives you when you don't have the most basic freedoms? In this scenario, perhaps, the GPL is nothing but an empty promise.
- rms 17y agoSure, I agree. Beyond that, the GPL isn't even enforceable in China, the CCP could care less about enforcing the freedoms that the GPL restricts, like the requirement to distribute source code.
