Imagine a world where all software adheres to the tenets of Free software. Our freedoms would continue to be egregiously curtailed by website Terms of Service Agreements at, Contracts with the service providers of hardware devices, Firmware restrictions like UEFI safeboot, and legal straightjackets like software patents. I dont understand how the philosophical underpinnings of just the software are really all that effective in guaranteeing any sort of freedom without also having all the other freedoms we're already denied.
