<h2>About the FSFE</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users
|
||||
to control technology. Software is deeply involved in all aspects of
|
||||
our lives and it is important that technology empowers rather than
|
||||
restricts us. Free Software gives everybody the rights to use,
|
||||
understand, adapt, and share software. These rights help support other
|
||||
fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, press, and privacy.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The FSFE helps individuals and organisations to understand how Free
|
||||
Software contributes to freedom, transparency, and self-determination.
|
||||
It enhances users' rights by abolishing barriers to Free Software
|
||||
adoption, encourages people to use and develop Free Software, and
|
||||
provides resources to enable everyone to further promote Free Software
|
||||
in Europe.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>We are involved in many activities in the legal, economic, political
|
||||
and technical areas around Free Software. Our work is made possible by
|
||||
a community of volunteers, supporters, donors, and staff.</p>
