@jwildeboer @tante @till To elaborate, the whole concept of Free Software, was based on the _individuals_ right to use a program, and improve it. It had nothing to do with decentralization, or distributed computing. Which was where the whole notion of Free software came about .. they are entirely compatible (depending on how you treat things). It had nothing to do with owning your computer, which was infinitely expensive, and unobtanium at that time.
