> If patented features are available on Trisquel, I need to remove the GUI,

Then remove the GUI. I don't care; it's your life. But if you're going to be
this absurdly paranoid, maybe you should just not use a computer
I'm also a free software and free culture supporter, but this is a little bit
much yea?
So, I can use JPEG & other now, MPEG at 2018. Please, close the topic.
All patents expired?
"Although the "baseline" variety of JPEG is believed patent-free, there are
many patents associated with some optional features of JPEG, namely

P. S. I need to remove *.doc(x) formats support from LibreOffice.
Just a general rule: don't react to things with extremism, especially things

Formats aren't software, being able to read patented formats does not take
away your freedom, although some patented formats have been
reverse-engineered so that they could be read with free software. Many
patents have expired such as for GIF, and in many places outside the US of A
these
Please, tell me about .midi (timidity package).
P. S. Patent? QM-coder, IBM, JPEG.
