Z:gnu-www-ja-linux-gnu-freedom--60baac-Calling this variant of the GN/en

Calling this variant of the GNU system &ldquo;Linux&rdquo; plays into the hands of people who choose their software based only on technical advantage, not caring whether it respects their freedom. There are people like Barr, that want their software &ldquo;free from ideology&rdquo; and criticize anyone that says freedom matters. There are people like Torvalds that will pressure our community into use of a non-free program, and challenge anyone who complains to provide a (technically) better program immediately or shut up. There are people who say that technical decisions should not be &ldquo;politicized&rdquo; by consideration of their social consequences.
