       Many people ask, "Can you sell free software?" The answer is "Yes, the GPL allows everyone to do this. The right to sell copies is part of the definition of free software." Read the full answer at https://u.fsf.org/3kq #GNUGPLFAQ

       @fsf isn’t it about time for FSF to recognize the rest of the free software world? I think we need to shift our strategy towards more acceptable in the world. I mean GPL for some innovative companies just doesn’t work for example so they can never adopt it. But not because they are evil but because they want to merely survive and thrive but I agree the definition of thriving doesn’t mean becoming a unicorn per se. I prefer to have 20 other basecamps then one giant mega corp

       @fsf  but if you sell you will very become subject to future EU regulation.I blogged about that regulation and my concerns for open source here (happy to talk to FSF about it):https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2022/10/the-eus-proposed-cyber-resilience-act-will-damage-the-open-source-ecosystem/
