[Trisquel-users] Re : Making the radeon kernel module work again

[lcerf]

 He knows the other reasons to use free software all boil down to privacy and  
security

That is not true. If a program does not do what we want (bugs, missing  
feature), we want to be free to address the problem (both individually and  
collectively). The problem is not necessarily a security issue. We consider  
that any user deserves to be in control of the work she achieves through  
computing. The freedom to modify programs is a necessary part of it. Why do  
we consider that "any user deserves to be in control of the work she achieves  
through computing"? Because it is the right thing. It is ethics. It does not  
need to be explained. It is a principle.
