SUMMARY:Free Software and Freedom in the Digital Society
DESCRIPTION:Free software is computer-software, the license of which allows
  its users to access the software's program code, change the software accor
 ding to their own needs and freely redistribute its code with these modific
 ations. The free-software movement originated 40 years ago in the "Hacker"-
 culture, it gained traction with arrival of the internet so that, today, so
 ftware-developers can rely on vast ecosystems of free-software. Even more i
 mportantly, free software has become an indispensible prerequisite for digi
 tal souvereignity. In his talk Richard Stallman will explain what free soft
 ware means and what the implications of using free software vs. non free so
 ftware are. Also, he will discuss why in a society that has become increasi
 ngly dependent on digital technology, free software has become a requiremen
 t for preserving freedom in general.
