Vor kurzem habe ich ein zwei Jahrzehnte altes Gespräch zwischen LWN und Richard Stallman durchgeblättert. Schon zu dieser frühen Zeit stach sein bemerkenswert konfrontativer Stil hervor.

LWN schreibt in »Interview with Richard M. Stallman |«

Proprietary software is antisocial, so developing it is wrong. In most cases, the user of proprietary software is expected to promise not to share with anyone else. It’s wrong to make that agreement, wrong to keep it if you have made it, and especially wrong to lure someone else into making such a promise. Using part of the proceeds of this antisocial activity for a worthy cause cannot justify it.
