Re: [Trisquel-users] How I fixed my suspend issue

Richard Stallman actually has some very good points about why we shouldn't  
move people to GNU/Linux distributions that include non-free software. The  
problem is it reduces the leverage we have against those who would like to  
turn GNU/Linux into a Microsoft replacement (that is to turn it non-free  
essentially). If we attract users to GNU/Linux who don't care about freedom  
then companies like Atheros won't have an incentive to release free  
drivers/firmware.

Taking a stronger stance against less critical non-free software is something  
we really need more distributions to do. Then we need to focus on solving  
more pressing issues such as a replacement for Adobe Flash and/or  
alternatives to sites like Netflix which are dependent on digital  
restrictions and non-free software.
