And it's not Linux, it's GNU/Linux!
- chroem 13y agoOrdinarily I think Stallman takes that way too far, but in this case the exact motivation behind free software was being described, yet it was still placed under the banner of open source. I think there's a time and a place for both terms, but when you're talking about resisting the NSA, you are (or should be) referring to free software.
- smnrchrds 13y agoThat statement would make sense if the distros we are using were mainly just Linux kernel + GNU tools. If we are going to give everyone their deserved credit, we should call it GNU/Linux/KDE/Apache/LibreOffice/... Good thing 4-clause BSD never caught on in the Linux world.
