@Suiseiseki @teto @animepfp true, forgot about that. However Stallman laid out that free culture (while noble) is a different movement from free software. It's true that the resulting binaries are illegal to distribute, however modern recompilation projects often have easy instructions or even GUIs to handle creating the local copies. Recompilation projects try to handle interpreting the code with comments and all that, with quite some success. It's still a huge achievement.
