If the remedies are designed to enable other companies compete in offering proprietary, nonfree software, that will do the Free World no particular good. Alternative possible masters is not freedom. And competition could lead them to do a &ldquo;better&rdquo; job, better in a narrow technical sense; then it could be harder for us to &ldquo;compete&rdquo; with them technically. We will continue to offer the user one thing those companies do not&mdash;freedom&mdash;and users who value freedom will continue to choose free software for that reason. But users who do not value freedom, and choose a system based on mere convenience, might be enticed away to &ldquo;improved&rdquo; proprietary systems.
