It's really sad to see that many GNU+Linux users appear to enjoy insulting Richard Stallman and the GNU project. They use GNU software every day, but they don't probably know that the GNU+Linux operating system couldn't exist without GNU. Or maybe they just don't care, which is even worse than ignorance. It will always be easier to take freedom away from people who don't appreciate it.
Well, I for one am very grateful to the GNU project for giving me a free operating system. I abandoned the proprietary Microsoft software world because I got sick and tired of applications spying and monitoring my activities, and not being able to control the software that I used daily. I decided to give GNU+Linux a try, and now I feel that I'm in control of my computer, not the other way around. I like the sweet taste of my new freedom.
I also like to show my gratitude to the GNU project by advocating free software whenever I can. Stephen Fry, who is one of my favourite actors, seems to feel the same kind of gratitude, and he also shows it openly by supporting the GNU project. Well done, Stephen. Happy 25th anniversary, GNU!
