Whether by developing free software for a wheelchair or by sharing the free software message on a microblog, we are all working together for free software. Let's take a moment to appreciate all the efforts made for the cause.

"If I use a piece of software that has been obtained under the GNU GPL, am I allowed to modify the original code into a new program then distribute and sell that new program commercially?" Read the full answer on our #GNUGPLFAQ u.fsf.org/3we

The best example I think is Ardour, which is licensed under GNU GPLv2. Source code are free, but binary files are paid

Chromebooks foisted on students? Teachers monitoring what children do outside of the classroom via nonfree software? Surveillance of children is common, and it's at your child's school, too. Support #FreeSoftware u.fsf.org/32h

@fsf
My son was also getting a Chromebook at school (and required to have an iPad long ago).

But he simply; "Don't use that outside school", "Why?", "Sure they are spying on us."

Hopefully, thinking kids can work this out with a bit of help.
