Human rights depend on each other; if you lose one human right it becomes hard to defend the others. [...] With non-free software all your other human rights become hard to defend."

"by Richard Stallman There are organizations that proclaim support for free software or the GNU Project, and teach classes in use of nonfree software. It's possible that they do some other things that really support free software, but those classes certainly don't.

That increases the magnitude of the practical problem it is our mission to correct."
