With paper printed books, you have certain freedoms. You can acquire the book anonymously by paying cash, which is the way I always buy books. I never use a credit card. I dont identify to any database when I buy books. Amazon takes away that freedom. – Richard Stallman
Sharing is good, and with digital technology, sharing is easy. – Richard Stallman
In the US, you even lose legal rights if you store your data in a companys machines instead of your own. The police need to present you with a search warrant to get your data from you but if they are stored in a companys server, the police can get it without showing you anything. – Richard Stallman
Value your freedom or you will lose it, teaches history. Dont bother us with politics, respond those who dont want to learn. – Richard Stallman
