Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel Projects - fund them with Kickstarter

[chris]

I think the idea of doing something like this is it would attract users and  
funding. There may also be people who would like to support the free software  
project whom don't have the time and/or aren't able to figure it out just  
yet. As easy to use as Trisquel is with the right hardware the whole thing  
tends to require a lot of hand holding for the average user, patience, and  
work (ie resistance to using non-free software). I think you might find there  
are a lot of people out there who are very much against censorship, loss of  
privacy, and freedom. While Trisquel isn't aimed squarely at privacy or  
censorship resistance the project is very conscious of it. Particularly in  
comparison to many more mainstream distributions and operating systems.
