 <h2>Proprietary Software</h2>

+<a href="/philosophy/free-sw.html">respect users' freedom and
+community</a>.  The developer or owner has power over its users.
+<a href="/philosophy/free-software-even-more-important.html">
+Proprietary software is itself an injustice</a>, although most users

+
+<p>Power corrupts, so the proprietary program's developer is tempted
+to design the program to mistreat its users &mdash;that is, to make
+it <em>malware</em>.  (Malware means software whose functioning
+mistreats the user.)  Of course, the developer usually does not do
+this out of malice, but rather to put the users at a disadvantage.
+That does not make it any less nasty or more legitimate.</p>

+<p>Yielding to that temptation has become ever more frequent; nowadays
+it is standard practice.  Modern proprietary software is software for
+suckers!</p>
