Software freedom means empowering users with control of their computing, rather than being beholden to the software developer.

In a world increasingly governed by software, the unyielding spirit of the free software movement continues to affirm that the control over our computing should lie in our hands, not someone else's. Strong copyleft licenses, like the GNU GPL, offer a robust framework to ensure that every line of free code written remains a liberating tool rather than a chain of control. #FSF #GNU #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom

Copyleft ensures that software remains free. By protecting the software from being turned proprietary, it helps to defend the freedom of the users. #copyleft #FreeSoftware
