I admire Stallman. He is someone who really made a difference. That said, I find myself slightly disagreeing with him on web services:

It seems like in most cases the criticism of web services mostly are in loss of privacy and digital security. On the other hand to me the point of the (A)GPL is ensuring that computer users have the right to inspect and modify the software running on their own systems.

I understand that there is some overlap: using free software is likely (I think) to increase one's privacy and digital security.
