Richard Stallman speaks about Free Software
The Free Software Movement campaigns for computer users' freedom to cooperate and control their own computing. The Free Software Movement developed the GNU operating system, typically used together with the kernel Linux, specifically to make these freedoms possible.
Richard Stallman launched the free software movement in 1983 and
started the development of the GNU operating system (see www.gnu.org) in 1984. GNU is free software:
everyone has the freedom to copy it and redistribute it, as well as to make
changes either large or small. The GNU/Linux system, basically the GNU
operating system with Linux added, is used on tens of millions of computers
today. Stallman has received the ACM Grace Hopper Award, a MacArthur
Foundation fellowship, the Electronic Frontier Foundation's Pioneer Award, and
the the Takeda Award for Social/Economic Betterment, as well as several
honorary doctorates.
