richard stallman - gnu/stallman quest lyrics

free software means software that respects the users freedom
there are four essential freedoms, that the user of software should always have

freedom zero is the freedom to run the program, however you wish
freedom one is the freedom to study the source code of the program and change it to make the program do what you wish
freedom two is the freedom to distribute copies of the program to others when you wish, now this includes republication of the program
and freedom three is the freedom is the freedom to distribute copies of the modified versions to others when you wish, and this also includes publication, if you, if you that’s how far you wish to go

if you have all four of these essential freedoms then the program is free software, which means that the social system of the distribution system of the program is an ethical system that respects the freedom and community of the users
if one of these freedoms is missing then the program is propriety software, meaning that it keeps the users divided and helpless, and gives the developer power over the users. this is an injustice

proprietary software should not exist and should not be used if you want to have freedom, the only way you can have it while using computers (the injustice) is by rejecting propriety software (the injustice x2) and that’s the aim of the free software movement (the injusticex4)

i am saint ignusius (the injusticex2)
of the church of emacs (the injusticex2)
i bless your computer my child (the injusticex31)
