Microsoft routinely attacks alternatives to Windows, like free software
GNU/Linux operating systems, by making vague claims that those
alternatives are violating Microsoft's patents. Patents serve to chill
and intimidate software developers. A key component of restoring the
freedom of computer users is getting rid of software patents.
Today the Free Software Foundation has joined with a broad coalition to
launch a campaign that will end the threat of software patents for good.
Please take a moment to show your support for this effort.
