Sunday, July 24, 2016: 12:00 pm (Lamarr): If we don’t control the program, it controls us. It is clearer every year that nonfree programs, beyond the basic injustice of giving the developer or owner unjust power over the users, also tends to be malware, for instance designed to restrict users or snoop on them. Since government agencies and schools require people to run software to exercise their rights, this software must all be free, but increasingly they impose use of nonfree software and commercial snooping services. We must now organize to demand that they stop.
