In some cases what this means in practice is don't use a computer. My understanding is one is freer having the opportunity to use a computer than not having it, even if the software in question reduces the freedom they would have if they could use a computer with free software. So I do not agree. Given Microsoft's copyrights are entirely an artifact of State regulation, I have no compunction whatsoever in State intervention to curb their abuse. --David. _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list Discussion@fsfeurope.org https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
