“The seven deadly sins are, according to the FSF, the
“seven major areas where proprietary software in general and
Microsoft Windows in particular hurt all computer users: invading
privacy, poisoning education, locking users in, abusing standards,
leveraging monopolistic behavior, enforcing DRM (Digital
Restrictions Management), and threatening user security.”“Beside the Web site, and a public demonstration at the Boston
Common, the FSF elaborated on these points in a letter to the
leaders of the Fortune 500 companies. Well, actually 499 CEOs
since, as the FSF notes on the site, “We didn’t think Microsoft
would listen.””
