I needed a good way to explain software freedom to people who have little to no computer experience (possibly parents or grandparents, kids, stay-at-home moms/dads, etc.), so I created the following blog post. Many of these people could benefit from free software, but aren’t going to learn about it through mainstream media. These people are usually easy to convert to Free Software, because they don’t already have blind opinions about the benefits of proprietary software. They also don’t resist with the “I don’t want to learn a new program” excuse, because they haven’t put much time into learning any software yet.
