I have met Stallman, I don't like Stallman, Stallman is right about most thing related software licensing.

    This reads like a lawyer was holding a shotgun to your head while you were typing it. I have to assume we won't get any more explanation than that 🤣.

    I agree with most of Stallman's views on proprietary code. However, the one time I met him in person I found him to be off putting. I am not going to get into details because this is the internet and I know how people are.
