That's what RMS says. The "anti-Tivoization" clause of the GPLv3 says something quite different. It exists specifically to deny developers some of their freedoms to use and develop software and hardware.


Freedom only for developers is kind of like a democracy where only
wealthy landowners are allowed to vote.

As if freedom only for users is any better.
