Taking Action For Free JavaScript

Posted by samzenpus on from the power-to-the-people dept.

Atticus Rex writes "Today the FSF kicked off a campaign to put pressure on webmasters to make their sites work without requiring nonfree JavaScript. The first target is Regulations.gov, a site the US government uses to take public comments on proposed regulations. Right now, the site requires nonfree JavaScript, requiring citizens to sacrifice their freedom as users to take part in their democracy."

    Here is how you can download a copy of the js code, ready, this is very complicated:

    curl http://whatever.com/scriptyouwant.js > scriptyouwant.js

    Wow, that was hard, wasn't it? It's shit like this that ensures I will never ever donate to the FSF. Morons.
