“Once I listened to RMS giving a talk and he explained this with
a nice analogy: software freedom is like freedom of press. Saying
“I’m not concerned with software freedom because I’m not a
programmer” is just as silly as saying “I’m not concerned with
freedom of press because I’m not a journalist”. Freedom of press is
actually meant for the benefit of all who read the press, not just
those who write it — that is, it really means freedom for the
people to get informed. In the same way, software freedom benefits
all users of software, not just programmers”
