Governments should definitely pay content creators to make open-source curricula for schools and universities. I agree with Stallman that proprietary learning materials are antithetical to the spirit of learning itself. Part of the process of learning is rearranging information, changing it, collectively annotating it, and consuming it through convenient new media (a digitized, hyperlinked document on a open comment platform, for example). There are only limited possibilities with proprietary information in this regard, and even fewer possibilities with proprietary software. Schools should not use either one.
