This talk is the journey of Craig’s discovery of the free software movement and how it solved his need to find a position in the fight for a better tomorrow. The hope is to inspire others to share this viewpoint of free software and to see how it is a critical factor for civilization if we want to avoid the nightmare dystopia which awaits us all if the free software movement fails.
Craig Topham has been working as the copyright and licensing associate for the Free Software Foundation since 2018.
