Stallman vs. Clouds

I respect Richard Stallman for the same reason I respect gravity. The man is a force of nature. He is like the iron core of the Earth: fixed, central, essential. So, when I read a story like “Cloud computing is a trap, warns GNU founder Richard Stallman”, which ran in the Guardian last week, I take notice. And I’m not alone. A search on Google for stallman “cloud computing” brings up 142,000 results.
