+</p>
<ul>
-<li>The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).</li>
-<li>The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs
- (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.</li>
-<li>The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
- (freedom 2).</li>

+<p>
+<a href="/copyleft/copyleft.html"><em>Copyleft</em></a> is a general
+method for making a program free
+software and requiring all modified and extended versions of the
+program to be free software as well.
+</p>
-<li><a href="/server/takeaction.html">More action items.</a></li>
+<p>
+The simplest way to make a program free is to put it in the
+<a href="/philosophy/categories.html#PublicDomainSoftware">public
+domain</a>, uncopyrighted. This allows people to share the program
+and their improvements, if they are so minded. But it also allows
+uncooperative people to convert the program into
+<a href="/philosophy/categories.html#ProprietarySoftware">proprietary
+software</a>. They can make changes, many or few, and distribute the
+result as a proprietary product. People who receive the program in
+that modified form do not have the freedom that the original author
+gave them; the middleman has stripped it away.
+</p>
-</ul>
+<p>
+In the <a href="/gnu/thegnuproject.html">GNU project</a>, our aim is
+to give <em>all</em> users the freedom to redistribute and change GNU
+software. If middlemen could strip off the freedom, we might have
+many users, but those users would not have freedom. So instead of
+putting GNU software in the public domain, we “copyleft”
+
+it. Copyleft says that anyone who redistributes the software, with or
+without changes, must pass along the freedom to further copy and
+change it. Copyleft guarantees that every user has freedom.
+</p>
-<!-- END TakeAction -->
-</div>
-</div>
+<p>
+Copyleft also provides an
+<a href="/philosophy/pragmatic.html">incentive</a>
+for other programmers to add to free software.
+Important free programs such as the GNU C++ compiler exist
+only because of this.
+</p>
-<div class="yui-g highlight-para">
+<p>
+Copyleft also helps programmers who want to contribute
+<a href="/software/software.html#HelpWriteSoftware">improvements</a> to
+<a href="/philosophy/free-sw.html">free software</a> get permission to
+do that. These programmers often work for companies or universities
+that would do almost anything to get more money. A programmer may
+want to contribute her changes to the community, but her employer may
+want to turn the changes into a proprietary software product.

+
+<p>
+When we explain to the employer that it is illegal to distribute the
+improved version except as free software, the employer usually decides
+to release it as free software rather than throw it away.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+To copyleft a program, we first state that it is copyrighted; then
+we add distribution terms, which are a legal instrument that gives
+everyone the rights to use, modify, and redistribute the program's
+code <em>or any program derived from it</em> but only if the
+distribution terms are unchanged. Thus, the code and the freedoms
+become legally inseparable.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Proprietary software developers use copyright to take away the users'
+freedom; we use copyright to guarantee their freedom. That's why we
+reverse the name, changing “copyright” into
+
+“copyleft”.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Copyleft is a general concept; there are many ways to fill in the
+details. In the GNU Project, the specific distribution terms that we
+use are contained in the GNU General Public License, the GNU Lesser
+General Public License and the GNU Free Documentation License.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The appropriate license is included in many manuals and in each GNU
+source code distribution.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The GNU GPL is designed so that you can easily apply it to your own
+program if you are the copyright holder. You don't have to modify the
+GNU GPL to do this, just add notices to your program which refer
+properly to the GNU GPL. Please note that you must use the
+entire text of the GPL, if you use it. It is an integral whole, and
+partial copies are not permitted. (Likewise for the LGPL, AGPL, and FDL.)
+</p>
+
+<p>
+
+Using the same distribution terms for many different programs makes it
+easy to copy code between various different programs. Since they all
+have the same distribution terms, there is no need to think about
+whether the terms are compatible. The Lesser GPL includes a
+provision that lets you alter the distribution terms to the ordinary
+GPL, so that you can copy code into another program covered by the GPL.
+</p>
+
+<h3>Licenses for Other Types of Works</h3>
+
+<p>
+We believe that published software and documentation should be
+<a href="/philosophy/free-doc.html">free software and free documentation</a>.
+We recommend making all sorts of educational and reference works free
+also, using free documentation licenses such as the
+<a href="#FDL">GNU Free Documentation License</a> (GNU FDL).
+</p>
+
+<p>For essays of opinion and scientific papers, we recommend
+either the <a
+href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/3.0/us/";>Creative
+Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 United States License</a>, or the
+simple “verbatim copying only” license stated above.</p>
