There are many freedoms. I suspect Stallman would be happy if he achieved all his free software goals, even if he lost freedoms that most other people consider more important.
- tankenmate 15y agoI think you completely misunderstand RMS then, I think you would find that he would argue that all freedoms are necessary and worth fighting for. In many speeches I have heard him give he has said that he could fight for other freedoms but the freedom he could do the best job of fighting for are software freedoms. I would suggest you read more of RMS's work and listen to more of his talks.
- jiggy2011 15y agoYes, exactly. Let's assume Stallman had qualified as a Medical Doctor rather than a Computer Programmer. Perhaps he would be making the same argument about pharmaceutical patents?
