RMS wrote an essay that begins, “In the Free Software Movement, we believe computer users should have the freedom to change and redistribute the software that they use. The `free’ in free software refers to freedom: it means users have the freedom to run, modify and redistribute the software. Free software contributes to human knowledge, while non-free software does not. Universities should therefore encourage free software for the sake of advancing human knowledge, just as they should encourage scientists and scholars to publish their work.”
