Developing libre software means contributing to the common good; enriching the Humanity's capability to compute things and handle data; potentially helping anyone, from the computer nerd to the final user, and even more.
Developing _libre_* software means contributing to the common good; enriching the Humanity's capability to compute things and handle data; potentially helping anyone, from the computer nerd to the final user, and even more. (* "libre" is the French for "free as in freedom", used to disambiguate with "free of charge")
Unfortunately, it also means enabling anyone to use the common good to their sole benefit and against the whole community. Think of the giants of the informational capitalism: the computing infrastructure of the libre's worst enemies depends heavily on libre software, Android is based on Linux but flouts user's freedoms, etc.
