There are so many, please forgive me if I forget some names. Besides, this list is in alphabetic order, and I also inserted those beyond famous, because I don't want to keep giving credit only to specific already known "stars".
- Adonay "adfeno" Felipe Nogueira (it's me, ;D), member of LibrePlanet Brasil; - Allison Randal, from FSF; - Alexandre "lxoliva" Oliva, from FSFLA; - Anahuac de Paula Gil, Brazilian famous for giving very useful talks that provoque people on questioning what they know about Tux, Linux, and open source, where in the end he always mentions and favors free/libre software philosophy; - Benjamin Mako Hill, from FSF(?); - Bradley "bkuhn" Kuhn, from Software Freedom Conservancy; - Christian Grothoff, talks about GNUnet and GNU Taler and mentions the free/libre software philosophy in these talks; - Christopher Allan Webber, developer and writer of some federation standards that are currently in the making; - Clayton "cdausacker" Eduardo Dausacker, member of LibrePlanet Brasil; - Eben Moglen, from Software Freedom Law Center; - John Sullivan, from FSF; - Karen Sandler, from Software Freedom Conservancy; - Katharina Nocun, politician which also gave a talk during Chaos Communication Congress 32c3 (2015) in favor of free/libre software, federated social networks and communications and also on distributed ones; - Larissa Oliva, Brazilian who gives talks on the importance of free/libre software and education, although I don't know if she gave talks on the importance of the philosophy. Anyways, seeing younger people getting interested in this area never stops amazing me; - Luis Villa, a lawyer and former developer; - Marianne Corvellec. She gave a talk on LibrePlanet 2017 providing an alternative view of the ethics (or lack of) in free/libre software movement and in open source development methodology; - Mathias Kirschner, from FSFE; - Matthew Garrett, known for the talk given in LibrePlanet 2013, where he describes the difference between Secure Boot and Restricted Boot; - Mike Gerwitz, from FSF; - Nelson de Luca Pretto, Brazilian who does research and talks describing the importance of free/libre software philosophy to education (if and when the education is to be made with computers); - Shauna Gordon-McKeon, gives speeches on democracy, artificial scarcity and free/libre software.
