GNU is the only operating system developed specifically to give its
users freedom. What is GNU, and what freedom is at stake?
What is GNU?
GNU is an operating system that is [52]free software—that is, it
respects users' freedom. The development of GNU made it possible to use
a computer without software that would trample your freedom.
We recommend [53]installable versions of GNU (more precisely, GNU/Linux
distributions) which are entirely free software. [54]More about GNU
below.
[55]Try GNU/Linux!

What is the Free Software Movement?
The free software movement campaigns to win for the users of computing
the freedom that comes from free software. Free software puts its users
in control of their own computing. Non-free software puts its users
under the power of the software's developer. See [58]the video
explanation.
What is Free Software?
Free software means the users have the freedom to run, copy,
distribute, study, change and improve the software.
Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the
concept, you should think of “free” as in “free speech”, not as in
“free beer”.
More precisely, free software means users of a program have the
[59]four essential freedoms:
* The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose
(freedom 0).
* The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your
needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for
this.
* The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
(freedom 2).
* The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements
to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3).
Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
Developments in technology and network use have made these freedoms
[60]even more important now than they were in 1983.
Nowadays the free software movement goes far beyond developing the GNU
system. See [61]the Free Software Foundation's web site for more about
what we do, and a list of [62]ways you can help.
More about GNU
GNU is a Unix-like operating system. That means it is a collection of
many programs: applications, libraries, developer tools, even games.
The development of GNU, started in January 1984, is known as the GNU
Project. Many of the programs in GNU are released under the auspices of
the GNU Project; those we call [63]GNU packages.
The name “GNU” is a recursive acronym for “GNU's Not Unix.” [64]“GNU”
is pronounced g'noo, as one syllable, like saying “grew” but replacing
the r with n.
The program in a Unix-like system that allocates machine resources and
talks to the hardware is called the “kernel”. GNU is typically used
with a kernel called Linux. This combination is the [65]GNU/Linux
operating system. GNU/Linux is used by millions, though many [66]call
it “Linux” by mistake.
GNU's own kernel, [67]The Hurd, was started in 1990 (before Linux was
started). Volunteers continue developing the Hurd because it is an
interesting technical project.

The GNU Talk Filters are programs that convert English text into
stereotyped or otherwise humorous dialects. The filters are provided as
a C library, so they can easily be integrated into other programs.
