I'm not following Richard Stallman or the FSF. I'm following the idea of free software, among other ideas. Richard Stallman is nothing like a boss, since there is no pressure to agree with him. For example, I'm not going to loose my job and my means, if I disagree with him.
Having a discussion while comparing ideas like free software to communism, capitalism or anarchism is pointless. None of those were ever realized in reality, but people will choose to compare things using historical or current very poor attempts at those. Also, wherever you choose the real definitions of those social structures or use the historical and current attempts, it's still a very narrow minded way of judging a person. Coca-Cola's formula is a trade secret and has nothing to do with copyright. Anyway, keeping such things locked and secret is not a contribution to society. And on another note, neither is a contribution having a crushing marketing campaigns about a drink that's bad for your health, or exploiting and murdering people. Coca-Cola Company deserves to be screwed by all means.
