03:28 schestowitz[TR2]; We cannot allow our leader - the Founder of the Free Software Movement that has revolutionised industries, worldwide - to be treated like this.
03:28 schestowitz[TR2]; The FSF should not need donations from entities who seek to cancel the prophet of the Free Software Movement. Like Schestowitz, I too believe that the attacks on RMS - which came to a head in 2019 - are continuing. Let's find a way to protect him, promote his vision, and accelerate his mission.
03:28 schestowitz[TR2]; We need a fearless counter campaign.

03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; I've visited the official FSF site (English) and have confirmed that
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; there are currently no events featuring RMS listed in either "upcoming
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; events" or "past events". I don't know the rationale behind this.
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; It would be natural to promote a talk by FSF founder RMS for surely it
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; would bring attention to the organization.
03:29 schestowitz[TR2];
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; According to Dora Scilipoti the recent lectures in Europe are
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; neverless well attended. She told me: "Almost 500 in Bologna, 300 in
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; Reggio Emilia, +250 in Trento and people who couldn't get in due to
03:29 schestowitz[TR2]; lack of space.""

Presumably the extent of contract protection would be narrow, depending on how users generating outputs can further communicate those outputs online (and accepting we're discussing UK law only as well)?
