#softwarefreedom
Our modern society is built on a #technosphere, where #SocialMedia facilitates our communications and how we interact. #FreeSoftware plays a huge and important role in facilitating all this.
Then merely musing, should #SoftwareFreedom not be considered to be just as nuanced as #FreedomOfSpeech? Are the four #FOSS freedoms reasonable, or are they akin to #FreeSpeech absolutism?

Software: A Legal Case Study from Poland
Software is a major component of modern life, affecting large parts of our lives. When software is embedded in vehicles, the ability to control our digital technology becomes even more important in the name of public safety. Despite that, a recent court case in Poland highlights how the law, and legal processes, can sometimes work against that.
Microsoft turns 50 today. What better way to celebrate than by making Windows #FreeSoftware under the #GPL - where users actually control their computers.
It's never too late to start respecting the rights of the user, Microsoft. #SoftwareFreedom
Folks, in today's world, we all love keeping up with technology, but I just realized my toaster's got WiFi and I still get buffering issues with my breakfast! I mean, I asked it for toast, and suddenly it's asking me to accept cookies? Next thing you know, it'll be trying to upsell me on a premium bread subscription. I'm just saying, maybe my morning ritual doesn't need a firmware update, just a smear of jam. #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom

Developers, let's empower and protect users and the community by releasing your software under the #GNU #GPL. https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html By doing so, you're taking a stand for user rights and defending against proprietary software. Your contributions can help move #FreeSoftware forward. Together, we can build software that belongs to everyone. Join the movement and make a difference! #SoftwareFreedom

A moment of silence for zunyi - the computer named for the city where Mao secured leadership in 1935. A Gigabyte GA-G41M-ES2L running libreboot (back when it was still free), zunyi served as my backup server. I saw it was off and wouldn’t turn back on. I disassembled and cleaned it, swapped the PSU - then a loud electrical SNAP! A strange smell. I unplugged it fast. No more risks. zunyi is retired. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the @fsf. #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom
