Free software: taking on dominant market forces
,----[ Snippet ]
| Do you feel that the Kerala Government's decision to start using
| free software in schools is something that the rest of the country
| will follow?
|
| Stallman: If you teach students to use proprietary software you are
| teaching them to be helplessly dependent on a particular company. And that
| is not good for society as a whole. So, the schools should not do it.
| What the Kerala Government is doing is the right thing and all the
| other States in India should be doing this.
