Countries like China and Saudia Arabia are going to filter internet content whether we in the USA like it or not. If American companies can make money off that, that's more money coming into the USA, and I'm all for that.
Stallman's view doesn't appear to be any different than Microsoft's. Microsoft wants everyone to use Microsoft software. Stallman wants everyone to use GNU software and license under the GPL.
I believe I'd rather have the freedom to choose between MS software and GNU software, and the freedom to license any code I happen to write any way I see fit.
Sorry RMS. I didn't let MS take my freedom of choice away, and I'm not going to let you, either.
