They have shifted as time as gone on, for example, patents can pose a significant problem to the development of Free Software today where fifteen years ago they were effectively non-existant. DRM has also been a problem for about six years. Of course, as a new platform becomes popular and another one goes into hibernation, different concerns come into play - for example, in response to the popularity of the web as a deployment technology, the FSF developed the GNU Affero licence (AGPL). -- William Leslie Notice: Likely much of this email is, by the nature of copyright, covered under copyright law.
