What a strange article. Clearly disturbed by the values and _confusion_ with the term free, it doesn’t delve into the significant body of work that existed prior to 1998, except for a passing quote, and how such software enabled many things, including the Linux Kernel. I can only presume the ad space associated with this article is valuable because it certainly isn’t an historically interesting or accurate piece.
