GNU, GPL, Open Source "This show features an interview with Richard Stallman, founder of the free software movement and the man who put the GNU into GNU/Linux. After introducing the concept of free software, Richard offers some trenchant criticism of two tech superstars: the Lord of Linux, Linus Torvalds, and Apple guru Steve Jobs. From there, we move into a discussion of the impact of free software - and freedom more generally - on the evolution of personal and global consciousness."

Freedom 0 does NOT come with proprietary software.

Just take a look at the Vista EULA and you'll see you have extremely limited usage rights. Luckily it's mostly void in Denmark, but it's sad for those of you living in USA.

Freedom 1,2 and 3 are essential to me, mostly because I want to control _my_ system and _my_ data.
