Ok so this is the 'Information wants to be free' based list of freedoms. It's too narrow, only applying to OSS.
I think we need a list of rights that does more than cover the OSS-ness of our software.e.g
Privacy of personal information.
1. Use software without having to login to facebook or google to do it. e.g. Android apps.
2. Sign up using credentials (e.g. email or phone) that cannot be sold to other parties.
Copyright
3. Be able to sell software without it getting freely redistributed contrary to the license.
4. Be able to reverse engineer commercial software.
Open web
5. Discourage web pages that are only available through social networks, e.g. small businesses using facebook pages.
6. Somehow reduce peoples dependence on Facebook as their primary online news source.
