– ## Why I agree with RMS on convenience vs. freedom: --
* RMS: «We cater to them (people who don't care about software freedom) to the extent it doesn't interfere with more important goals, such as establishing a free society.»
* RMS: «Our goal is not "helping users" (i.e., giving them whatever they happen to want). Our goal is establishing freedom for computer users.»
* RMS: «I am sure it IS effective for convincing people to use GNU/Linux when that is more convenient. I want to convince people to insist on freedom even when it is inconvenient.»
