I have nothing against Stallman as a hacker, or his goals with the FSF. I use the gnu toolchain daily, and run Fedora on my old laptop. I have nothing but respect for what he did in the 80s and 90s with GNU/Linux. That said, I do have a problem with how he presents his case, and the silly rebrandings of any non-free devices. It's germane to this discussion because of the EFF's rebranding of the PROTECT IP Act, which although similar in nature comes across much better than any of the FSF's rebrandings. I think it's disingenuous to call them jokes, as they really don't come across that way.
