<h2>What is the Free Software Movement?</h2> |
41 |
|
|
42 |
|
<p>The free software movement campaigns to win for the users of computing the |
43 |
|
freedom that comes from free software. Free software puts its users in |
44 |
|
control of their own computing. Non-free software puts its users under the |
45 |
|
power of the software's developer. See <a |
