The 'real' freedom of 'free' software
,----[ Quote ]

GNU/Linux: What Does “Free” Mean?
,----[ Quote ]
| I have been pondering the meaning of “free” in association with Free Open
| Source Software (FOSS) in general and GNU/Linux in particular. If one asks a
| FOSS advocate what free means in regard to these one might hear the
| reply, “Free as in beer!” and/or “Free as in freedom!”. While that means
| something to the FOSS advocate it may not mean the same thing to whoever asks
| the question. Frankly, my beer has rarely been free and furthermore what
| is “freedom”? I think I have answers to the question in the title. Bear with
| me while I attempt to explain what free means in relation to FOSS and
| GNU/Linux.
