In the conclusion, Stallman was asked whether it would be unethical to 
"liberate" code that was proprietary. His response:

    To liberate the code, if it is possible, would not be theft, any 
more than freeing a slave is theft (which is what the slave owner would 
surely call it). 

For those corporate staffers who have hitched their star to someone who 
does not see a distinction between human slavery and proprietary 
software -- I seriously suggest you begin thinking about a Plan B.
