I love this article, because although it doesn't offer too concrete a solution, it correctly poses the problem of software freedom and privacy, not in individualistic terms, but as a collective problem, that requires a collective solution.

And stallman is kinda the figurehead of the lifestylist approach to software freedom. We can't pretend that just because free software exists, and a few people are enlightened enough to use it, that we've made much progress at all for software freedom. Capitalist software development, with all its adverse effects on privacy,is still the dominant way people interact with their computers.
