four freedoms

November 9th, 2007

“Nobody should be restricted by the software they use. There are four freedoms that every user should have:

* the freedom to use the software for any purpose,
* the freedom to share the software with your friends and neighbors,
* the freedom to change the software to suit your needs, and
* the freedom to share the changes you make.

When a program offers users all of these freedoms, we call it free software.”

L’internet plus libre que la télé

September 26th, 2007

L’émission tv bannie compte revenir en force sur internet, entièrement financée par les téléspectateurs et la pub.

30 euros par an, 3 euros par mois, avec 2 mois gratuits en été.

Avec aussi une offre “ami radin” assez marrante, qui propose un abonnement gratuit à ceux qui arrivent à “expliquer leur motivations dans un courrier argumenté.”
