Abstract

Software is the basic cultural technique of the digital age, like reading and writing were the cultural techniques of their ages. Free Software understands software not as a product, but as a process of codified knowledge. To allow participation in a digital age, software must offer users the freedom to use, examine, modify and distribute the program. Acting as a European NGO within a global network, the Free Software Foundation Europe is working to improve the political, economic and legal environment for Free Software. Supported by the Fellowship community, we spread knowledge and awareness for Free Software, Free Society and work to implement it on a legal, political and technological basis.
