Richard Stallman of the Free Software Foundation visits "NOW"
As the final event of “NOW’s April edition – “Meetings in the present continuous” – Richard Stallman, the GNU-inventor and founder of the free software foundation, shared his thoughts and beliefs at the CCCB.
I really enjoyed the presentation of this godfather of free software, although it was more a religious mass rather than a lecture: Stallman talked about Free Software, Human Rights and the ideological term “piracy” (“pirates capture ships, not digital stuff”), always trying to convince the audience to switch to Linux. The exorcism-procedures included Microsoft-Bashing, Apple-Condemning and RealPlayer-Insulting.
