+&lt;h2&gt;What is free software?&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;The Free Software Definition&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;
+The free software definition presents the criteria for whether a
+particular software program qualifies as free software.  From time to
+time we revise this definition, to clarify it or to resolve questions
+about subtle issues.  See the &lt;a href="#History"&gt;History 
section&lt;/a&gt;
+below for a list of changes that affect the definition of free
+software.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+&ldquo;Free software&rdquo; means software that respects users'
+freedom and community.  Roughly, &lt;b&gt;the users have the freedom to run,
+copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software&lt;/b&gt;.  With these
+freedoms, the users (both individually and collectively) control the
+program and what it does for them.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+When users don't control the program, the program controls the users.
+The developer controls the program, and through it controls the users.
+This nonfree or &ldquo;proprietary&rdquo; program is therefore an
+instrument of unjust power.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Thus, &ldquo;free software&rdquo; is a matter of liberty, not price.
+To understand the concept, you should think of &ldquo;free&rdquo; as
+in &ldquo;free speech,&rdquo; not as in &ldquo;free beer&rdquo;.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+A program is free software if the program's users have the
+four essential freedoms:
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 
0).&lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it
+      does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source
+      code is a precondition for this.
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
+      (freedom 2).
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions
+      to others (freedom 3).  By doing this you can give the whole
+      community a chance to benefit from your changes.
+      Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+A program is free software if users have all of these freedoms.  Thus,
+you should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without
+modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to
+&lt;a href="#exportcontrol"&gt;anyone anywhere&lt;/a&gt;.  Being free to do 
these
+things means (among other things) that you do not have to ask or pay
+for permission to do so.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+You should also have the freedom to make modifications and use them
+privately in your own work or play, without even mentioning that they
+exist.  If you do publish your changes, you should not be required to
+notify anyone in particular, or in any particular way.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+The freedom to run the program means the freedom for any kind of person
+or organization to use it on any kind of computer system, for any kind of
+overall job and purpose, without being required to communicate about it
+with the developer or any other specific entity.  In this freedom, it is
+the &lt;em&gt;user's&lt;/em&gt; purpose that matters, not the 
&lt;em&gt;developer's&lt;/em&gt;
+purpose; you as a user are free to run the program for your purposes,
+and if you distribute it to someone else, she is then free to run it
+for her purposes, but you are not entitled to impose your purposes on her.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+The freedom to redistribute copies must include binary or executable
+forms of the program, as well as source code, for both modified and
+unmodified versions.  (Distributing programs in runnable form is necessary
+for conveniently installable free operating systems.)  It is OK if there
+is no way to produce a binary or executable form for a certain program
+(since some languages don't support that feature), but you must have the
+freedom to redistribute such forms should you find or develop a way to
+make them.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+In order for freedoms 1 and 3 (the freedom to make changes and the
+freedom to publish the changed versions) to be meaningful, you must have
+access to the source code of the program.  Therefore, accessibility of
+source code is a necessary condition for free software.  Obfuscated
+&ldquo;source code&rdquo; is not real source code and does not count
+as source code.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Freedom 1 includes the freedom to use your changed version in place of
+the original.  If the program is delivered in a product designed to
+run someone else's modified versions but refuse to run yours &mdash; a
+practice known as &ldquo;tivoization&rdquo; or &ldquo;lockdown&rdquo;,
+or (in its practitioners' perverse terminology) as &ldquo;secure
+boot&rdquo; &mdash; freedom 1 becomes a theoretical fiction rather
+than a practical freedom.  This is not sufficient.  In other words,
+these binaries are not free software even if the source code they are
+compiled from is free.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+One important way to modify a program is by merging in available free
+subroutines and modules.  If the program's license says that you
+cannot merge in a suitably licensed existing module &mdash; for instance, if it
+requires you to be the copyright holder of any code you add &mdash; then the
+license is too restrictive to qualify as free.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Freedom 3 includes the freedom to release your modified versions
+as free software.  A free license may also permit other ways of
+releasing them; in other words, it does not have to be
+a &lt;a href="/copyleft/copyleft.html"&gt;copyleft&lt;/a&gt; license.  
However, a
+license that requires modified versions to be nonfree does not qualify
+as a free license.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+In order for these freedoms to be real, they must be permanent and
+irrevocable as long as you do nothing wrong; if the developer of the
+software has the power to revoke the license, or retroactively add
+restrictions to its terms, without your doing anything wrong to give
+cause, the software is not free.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+However, certain kinds of rules about the manner of distributing free
+software are acceptable, when they don't conflict with the central
+freedoms.  For example, copyleft (very simply stated) is the rule that
+when redistributing the program, you cannot add restrictions to deny
+other people the central freedoms.  This rule does not conflict with
+the central freedoms; rather it protects them.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+&ldquo;Free software&rdquo; does not mean &ldquo;noncommercial&rdquo;.  A free
+program must be available for commercial use, commercial development,
+and commercial distribution.  Commercial development of free software
+is no longer unusual; such free commercial software is very important.
+You may have paid money to get copies of free software, or you may have
+obtained copies at no charge.  But regardless of how you got your copies,
+you always have the freedom to copy and change the software, even to 
+&lt;a href="/philosophy/selling.html"&gt;sell copies&lt;/a&gt;.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Whether a change constitutes an improvement is a subjective matter.
+If your right to modify a program is limited, in substance, to changes that
+someone else considers an improvement, that program is not free.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+However, rules about how to package a modified version are acceptable,
+if they don't substantively limit your freedom to release modified
+versions, or your freedom to make and use modified versions privately.
+Thus, it is acceptable for the license to require that you change the
+name of the modified version, remove a logo, or identify your
+modifications as yours.  As long as these requirements are not so
+burdensome that they effectively hamper you from releasing your
+changes, they are acceptable; you're already making other changes to
+the program, so you won't have trouble making a few more.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Rules that &ldquo;if you make your version available in this way, you
+must make it available in that way also&rdquo; can be acceptable too,
+on the same condition.  An example of such an acceptable rule is one
+saying that if you have distributed a
+modified version and a previous developer asks for a copy of it, you
+must send one.  (Note that such a rule still leaves you the choice of
+whether to distribute your version at all.)  Rules that require release
+of source code to the users for versions that you put into public use
+are also acceptable.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+A special issue arises when a license requires changing the name by
+which the program will be invoked from other programs.  That
+effectively hampers you from releasing your changed version so that it
+can replace the original when invoked by those other programs.  This
+sort of requirement is acceptable only if there's a suitable aliasing
+facility that allows you to specify the original program's name as an
+alias for the modified version.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+In the GNU project, we use 
+&lt;a href="/copyleft/copyleft.html"&gt;copyleft&lt;/a&gt;
+to protect these freedoms legally for everyone.  But 
+&lt;a 
href="/philosophy/categories.html#Non-CopyleftedFreeSoftware"&gt;noncopylefted
+free software&lt;/a&gt; also exists.  We believe there are important reasons 
why
+&lt;a href="/philosophy/pragmatic.html"&gt;it is better to use 
copyleft&lt;/a&gt;,
+but if your program is noncopylefted free software, it is still basically
+ethical. (See &lt;a href="/philosophy/categories.html"&gt;Categories of Free 
Software&lt;/a&gt; for a description of how &ldquo;free software,&rdquo; 
&ldquo;copylefted software&rdquo; and other categories of software relate to 
each other.)
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Sometimes government &lt;a id="exportcontrol"&gt;export control 
regulations&lt;/a&gt;
+and trade sanctions can constrain your freedom to distribute copies of
+programs internationally.  Software developers do not have the power to
+eliminate or override these restrictions, but what they can and must do
+is refuse to impose them as conditions of use of the program.  In this
+way, the restrictions will not affect activities and people outside the
+jurisdictions of these governments.  Thus, free software licenses
+must not require obedience to any <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>nontrivial</em></ins></span> export regulations as a
+condition of <span class="inserted"><ins><em>exercising</em></ins></span> any 
of the essential freedoms.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>Merely mentioning the existence of export 
regulations, without making
+them a condition of the license itself, is acceptable since it does
+not restrict users.  If an export regulation is actually trivial for
+free software, then requiring it as a condition is not an actual
+problem; however, it is a potential problem, since a later change in
+export law could make the requirement nontrivial and thus render the
+software nonfree.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+Most free software licenses are based on copyright, and there are limits
+on what kinds of requirements can be imposed through copyright.  If a
+copyright-based license respects freedom in the ways described above, it
+is unlikely to have some other sort of problem that we never anticipated
+(though this does happen occasionally).  However, some free software
+licenses are based on contracts, and contracts can impose a much larger
+range of possible restrictions.  That means there are many possible ways
+such a license could be unacceptably restrictive and nonfree.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+We can't possibly list all the ways that might happen.  If a
+contract-based license restricts the user in an unusual way that
+copyright-based licenses cannot, and which isn't mentioned here as
+legitimate, we will have to think about it, and we will probably conclude
+it is nonfree.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+When talking about free software, it is best to avoid using terms
+like &ldquo;give away&rdquo; or &ldquo;for free,&rdquo; because those terms 
imply that
+the issue is about price, not freedom.  Some common terms such
+as &ldquo;piracy&rdquo; embody opinions we hope you won't endorse.  See 
+&lt;a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html"&gt;Confusing Words and Phrases 
that
+are Worth Avoiding&lt;/a&gt; for a discussion of these terms.  We also have
+a list of proper &lt;a href="/philosophy/fs-translations.html"&gt;translations 
of
+&ldquo;free software&rdquo;&lt;/a&gt; into various languages.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Finally, note that criteria such as those stated in this free software
+definition require careful thought for their interpretation.  To decide
+whether a specific software license qualifies as a free software license,
+we judge it based on these criteria to determine whether it fits their
+spirit as well as the precise words.  If a license includes unconscionable
+restrictions, we reject it, even if we did not anticipate the issue
+in these criteria.  Sometimes a license requirement raises an issue
+that calls for extensive thought, including discussions with a lawyer,
+before we can decide if the requirement is acceptable.  When we reach
+a conclusion about a new issue, we often update these criteria to make
+it easier to see why certain licenses do or don't qualify.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+If you are interested in whether a specific license qualifies as a free
+software license, see our &lt;a href="/licenses/license-list.html"&gt;list
+of licenses&lt;/a&gt;.  If the license you are concerned with is not
+listed there, you can ask us about it by sending us email at 
+&lt;a href="mailto:address@hidden"&gt;&lt;address@hidden&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.
+&lt;/p&gt; 
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+If you are contemplating writing a new license, please contact the
+Free Software Foundation first by writing to that address. The
+proliferation of different free software licenses means increased work
+for users in understanding the licenses; we may be able to help you
+find an existing free software license that meets your needs.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+If that isn't possible, if you really need a new license, with our
+help you can ensure that the license really is a free software license
+and avoid various practical problems.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3 id="beyond-software"&gt;Beyond Software&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+&lt;a href="/philosophy/free-doc.html"&gt;Software manuals must be 
free&lt;/a&gt;,
+for the same reasons that software must be free, and because the
+manuals are in effect part of the software.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+The same arguments also make sense for other kinds of works of
+practical use &mdash; that is to say, works that embody useful knowledge,
+such as educational works and reference
+works.  &lt;a href="http://wikipedia.org"&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt; is the 
best-known
+example.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Any kind of work &lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; be free, and the definition of free 
software
+has been extended to a definition of &lt;a 
href="http://freedomdefined.org/"&gt;
+free cultural works&lt;/a&gt; applicable to any kind of works.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3 id="open-source"&gt;Open Source?&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;
+Another group has started using the term &ldquo;open source&rdquo; to mean
+something close (but not identical) to &ldquo;free software&rdquo;.  We
+prefer the term &ldquo;free software&rdquo; because, once you have heard that
+it refers to freedom rather than price, it calls to mind freedom.  The
+word &ldquo;open&rdquo; &lt;a 
href="/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html"&gt;
+never refers to freedom&lt;/a&gt;.
+&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3 id="History"&gt;History&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;From time to time we revise this Free Software Definition.  Here is
+the list of substantive changes, along with links to show exactly what
+was changed.&lt;/p&gt;

+1.111&lt;/a&gt;: Clarify 1.77 by saying that only
+retroactive &lt;em&gt;restrictions&lt;/em&gt; are unacceptable.  The copyright
+holders can always grant additional &lt;em&gt;permission&lt;/em&gt; for use of 
the
+work by releasing the work in another way in parallel.&lt;/li&gt;
+
+&lt;li&gt;&lt;a

+
+&lt;li&gt;&lt;a

+1.74&lt;/a&gt;: Four clarifications of points not explicit enough, or stated
+in some places but not reflected everywhere:
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;"Improvements" does not mean the license can
+substantively limit what kinds of modified versions you can release.
+Freedom 3 includes distributing modified versions, not just changes.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;The right to merge in existing modules
+refers to those that are suitably licensed.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Explicitly state the conclusion of the point about export 
controls.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Imposing a license change constitutes revoking the old

+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;On the Internet, proprietary software isn't the only 
way to
+lose your freedom.  <span

+
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS means using a service implemented by

+various other practices, some abusive and some ok.  With the
+explanation and examples in this page, you can tell whether a service
+is SaaSS.</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;h3&gt;Background: How Proprietary Software Takes Away Your 
Freedom&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Digital technology can give you freedom; it can also take your
+freedom away.  The first threat to our control over our computing came
+from &lt;em&gt;proprietary software&lt;/em&gt;: software that the users cannot
+control because the owner (a company such as Apple or Microsoft)
+controls it.  The owner often takes advantage of this unjust power by
+inserting malicious features such as spyware, back doors, and &lt;a
+href="http://DefectiveByDesign.org"&gt;Digital Restrictions Management
+(DRM)&lt;/a&gt; (referred to as &ldquo;Digital Rights Management&rdquo; in
+their propaganda).&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Our solution to this problem is developing &lt;em&gt;free 
software&lt;/em&gt;
+and rejecting proprietary software.  Free software means that you, as
+a user, have four essential freedoms: (0)&nbsp;to run the program as
+you wish, (1)&nbsp;to study and change the source code so it does what
+you wish, (2)&nbsp;to redistribute exact copies, and (3)&nbsp;to
+redistribute copies of your modified versions.  (See
+the &lt;a href="/philosophy/free-sw.html"&gt;free software
+definition&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;With free software, we, the users, take back control of our
+computing.  Proprietary software still exists, but we can exclude it
+from our lives and many of us have done so.  However, we now face a
+new threat to our control over our computing: <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Software</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Service</em></ins></span> as a <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Service.</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Software
+Substitute (SaaSS).</em></ins></span>  For our freedom's sake, we have to 
reject that
+too.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;How <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Software</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Service</em></ins></span> as a <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Service</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Software Substitute</em></ins></span> Takes Away Your 
Freedom&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>&lt;p&gt;Software</strong></del></span>
+
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;p&gt;Service</em></ins></span> as a <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Service (SaaS)</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Software Substitute (SaaSS) means using a service as a
+substitute for running your copy of a program.  Concretely, 
it</em></ins></span> means
+that someone sets up a network server that does certain computing <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>tasks&mdash;running spreadsheets,
+word processing,</strong></del></span>
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>tasks&mdash;for instance, modifying a 
photo,</em></ins></span> translating text into
+another language, etc.&mdash;then invites users to do <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>their</strong></del></span> computing <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>on</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>via</em></ins></span>
+that server.
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>Users</strong></del></span>  <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>A user of the server would</em></ins></span> send 
<span class="removed"><del><strong>their</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>her</em></ins></span> data to the server,
+which does <span class="removed"><del><strong>their 
computing</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;em&gt;her 
own computing&lt;/em&gt;</em></ins></span> on the data thus provided, then
+sends the results back <span class="inserted"><ins><em>to 
her</em></ins></span> or acts <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>directly</em></ins></span> on <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>them
+directly.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>her 
behalf.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The computing is &lt;em&gt;her own&lt;/em&gt; because, by assumption, 
she
+could, in principle, have done it by running a program on her own
+computer (whether or not that program is available to her at
+present).  When this assumption is not so, it isn't 
SaaSS.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;These servers wrest control from the users even more inexorably
+than proprietary software.  With proprietary software, users typically
+get an executable file but not the source code.  That makes it hard
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>for programmers</strong></del></span> to
+study the code that is running, so it's hard to determine what the
+program really does, and hard to change it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;With <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS,</strong></del></span> 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS,</em></ins></span> the users do not have 
even the executable <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>file:</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>file that
+does their computing:</em></ins></span> it is on
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>the</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>someone else's</em></ins></span> server, where the 
users
+can't see or touch it.  Thus it is impossible for them to ascertain
+what it really does, and impossible to change it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> automatically leads to <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>harmful</strong></del></span> consequences 
equivalent
+to the malicious features of certain proprietary <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>software.</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>software.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;</em></ins></span> For instance, some proprietary programs are 
&ldquo;spyware&rdquo;:
+the program sends out data about users' computing activities.
+Microsoft Windows sends information about users' activities to
+Microsoft.  Windows Media Player <span class="removed"><del><strong>and 
RealPlayer report</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>reports</em></ins></span> what each user watches or
+listens <span class="removed"><del><strong>to.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span> 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>to.  The Amazon Kindle reports which pages of 
which books the
+user looks at, and when.  Angry Birds reports the user's geolocation
+history.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;Unlike proprietary software, <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> does not require covert code 
to
+obtain the user's data.  Instead, users must send their data to the
+server in order to use it.  This has the same effect as spyware: the
+server operator gets the <span class="removed"><del><strong>data.  He gets it 
with</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>data&mdash;with</em></ins></span> no special effort, 
by
+the nature of <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;Some proprietary <span class="removed"><del><strong>programs can 
mistreat users under remote command.</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>operating systems have a universal back door,
+permitting someone to remotely install software changes.</em></ins></span>  For
+instance, Windows has a <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>universal</em></ins></span> back door with which 
Microsoft can
+forcibly change any software on the machine.  <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>The Amazon Kindle e-book
+reader (whose name suggests it's intended to burn people's books) has
+an Orwellian</strong></del></span>  <span class="inserted"><ins><em>Nearly all 
portable
+phones have them, too.  Some proprietary applications also have
+universal</em></ins></span> back <span class="removed"><del><strong>door that 
Amazon used in 2009
+to &lt;a

&lt;cite&gt;1984&lt;/cite&gt; and
+&lt;cite&gt;Animal Farm&lt;/cite&gt; which</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>doors; for instance,</em></ins></span> the <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>users had purchased from Amazon.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;SaaS inherently gives</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>Steam client for GNU/Linux
+allows the developer to remotely install modified versions.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;With SaaSS,</em></ins></span> the server operator <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>the power to</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>can</em></ins></span> change the software in <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>use, or</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>use on</em></ins></span>
+the <span class="removed"><del><strong>users' data being operated on.  Once 
again, no
+special code is needed</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>server.  He ought to be able</em></ins></span> to do 
<span class="removed"><del><strong>this.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Thus, SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>this, since it's his computer;
+but the result</em></ins></span> is <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>equivalent to total spyware 
and</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>the same as using a

wide</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>universal</em></ins></span> back
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>door, and gives</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>door: someone has the power to silently impose
+changes in how the user's computing gets done.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Thus, SaaSS is equivalent to running proprietary software with
+spyware and a universal back door.  It gives</em></ins></span> the server 
operator
+unjust power over the <span class="removed"><del><strong>user.  We
+can't accept that.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;Untangling</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>user, and that power is something we must
+resist.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;SaaSS and SaaS&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Originally we referred to this problematical practice as
+&ldquo;SaaS&rdquo;, which stands for &ldquo;Software as a
+Service&rdquo;.  It's a commonly used term for setting up software on a
+server rather than offering copies of it to users, and we thought it
+described precisely the cases where this problem occurs.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Subsequently we became aware that</em></ins></span> the <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>term</em></ins></span> SaaS <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>is sometimes used for
+communication services&mdash;activities for which this issue is not
+applicable.  In addition, the term &ldquo;Software as a Service&rdquo;
+doesn't explain &lt;em&gt;why&lt;/em&gt; the practice is bad.  So we coined 
the term
+&ldquo;Service as a Software Substitute&rdquo;, which defines the bad
+practice more clearly and says what is bad about it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;Untangling the SaaSS</em></ins></span> Issue from the Proprietary 
Software Issue&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>&lt;p&gt;SaaS</strong></del></span>
+
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;p&gt;SaaSS</em></ins></span> and 
proprietary software lead to similar harmful results, but
+the <span class="removed"><del><strong>causal</strong></del></span> mechanisms 
are different.  With proprietary software, the
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>cause</strong></del></span>
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>mechanism</em></ins></span> is that you have 
and use a copy which is difficult <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>or</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>and/or</em></ins></span>
+illegal to change.  With <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS,</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS,</em></ins></span> the <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>cause</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>mechanism</em></ins></span> is that you <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>use a copy you</strong></del></span> don't
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>have.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>have
+the copy that's doing your computing.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;These two issues are often confused, and not only by accident.  Web
+developers use the vague term &ldquo;web application&rdquo; to lump
+the server software together with programs run on your machine in your
+browser.  Some web pages install <span class="removed"><del><strong>nontrivial 
or</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>nontrivial,</em></ins></span> even large JavaScript
+programs <span class="removed"><del><strong>temporarily</strong></del></span> 
into your browser without informing
+you.  &lt;a href="/philosophy/javascript-trap.html"&gt;When these JavaScript
+programs are nonfree&lt;/a&gt;, they are <span class="removed"><del><strong>as 
bad</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>the same sort of 
problem</em></ins></span> as any
+other nonfree software.  Here, however, we are concerned with the
+problem of the server software itself.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Many free software supporters assume that the problem of <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> will
+be solved by developing free software for servers.  For the server
+operator's sake, the programs on the server had better be free; if
+they are proprietary, their owners have power over the server.  That's
+unfair to the operator, and doesn't help <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>you</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>the users</em></ins></span> at all.  But if the
+programs on the server are free, that doesn't protect <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>you &lt;em&gt;as the</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;em&gt;the</em></ins></span> server's <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>user&lt;/em&gt;</strong></del></span>
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>users&lt;/em&gt;</em></ins></span> from the 
effects of <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.  They give freedom 
to</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.  These programs 
liberate</em></ins></span> the
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>server</em></ins></span> operator, but not 
<span class="removed"><del><strong>to you.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span> 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>the server's users.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;Releasing the server software source code does benefit the
+community: <span class="inserted"><ins><em>it enables</em></ins></span> 
suitably skilled users <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>can</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>to</em></ins></span> set up similar
+servers, perhaps changing the
+software.  <span class="removed"><del><strong>But</strong></del></span>  <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;a 
href="/licenses/license-recommendations.html"&gt; We
+recommend using the GNU Affero GPL&lt;/a&gt; as the license for programs
+often used on servers.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;But</em></ins></span> none of these servers would give you control 
over computing you
+do on it, unless it's &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; server.
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>The rest would</strong></del></span>  <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>It may be OK to trust
+your friend's server for some jobs, just as you might let your friend
+maintain the software on your own computer.  Outside of 
that,</em></ins></span> all
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>these servers would</em></ins></span> be <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.  SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS for you.  SaaSS</em></ins></span> always 
subjects you to
+the power of the server operator, and the only remedy is, &lt;em&gt;Don't
+use <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS!&lt;/em&gt;</strong></del></span> 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS!&lt;/em&gt;</em></ins></span>  Don't use 
someone else's server to do your own
+computing on data provided by you.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h3&gt;Distinguishing <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> from Other Network 
Services&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>&lt;p&gt;Does avoiding SaaS mean you refuse 
to use any network servers run
+by anyone other than you?  Not at all.  Most servers do not raise this
+issue, because the job you do with them isn't your own computing
+except in</strong></del></span>
+
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>&lt;p&gt;Which online services are SaaSS?  The 
clearest example is</em></ins></span> a <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>trivial sense.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The original purpose of web servers wasn't to do computing for you,
+it was to publish information</strong></del></span>
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>translation service, which translates (say) 
English text into Spanish
+text.  Translating a text</em></ins></span> for you <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>to access.  Even today this</strong></del></span> 
is
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>what most web</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>computing that is purely yours.
+You could do it by running a program on your own computer, if only you
+had the right program.  (To be ethical, that program should be free.)
+The translation service substitutes for that program, so it is Service
+as a Software Substitute, or SaaSS.  Since it denies you control
+over your computing, it does you wrong.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Another clear example is using a service such as Flickr or
+Instagram to modify a photo.  Modifying photos is an activity that
+people have done in their own computers for decades; doing it in a
+server instead of your own computer is SaaSS.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Rejecting SaaSS does not mean refusing to use any network servers
+run by anyone other than you.  Most servers are not SaaSS because the
+jobs they do are not the user's own computing.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The original idea of web servers wasn't to do computing for you, it
+was to publish information for you to access.  Even today this is what
+most web</em></ins></span> sites do, and it doesn't pose the <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> problem, because
+accessing someone's published information isn't <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>a matter of</strong></del></span> doing your own
+computing.  Neither is publishing your own materials via a blog site
+or a microblogging service such as Twitter or <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>identi.ca.</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>StatusNet.  (These
+services may have other problems, of course.)</em></ins></span>  The same goes 
for <span class="inserted"><ins><em>other</em></ins></span>
+communication not meant to be private, such as chat
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>groups.  Social</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>groups.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In its essence, social</em></ins></span> networking <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>can extend into SaaS; however, at root 
it</strong></del></span> is <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>just</strong></del></span> a <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>method</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>form</em></ins></span> of communication and
+publication, not <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.  If you
+use the</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.  However, 
a service whose main facility is

+

minor editing of what you're going to communicate,
+that</strong></del></span> is not <span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS, that

+
+&lt;p&gt;Services such as search engines collect data from around the web
+and let you examine it.  Looking through their collection of data

in <span class="removed"><del><strong>e-commerce</strong></del></span> <span

trust the

+
+&lt;p&gt;Using a joint project's servers isn't SaaS

(starting

+
+&lt;p&gt;Repository sites such as as Savannah and SourceForge are not
+inherently SaaSS, because a repository's job is publication of data
+supplied to it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Using a joint project's servers isn't SaaSS because</em></ins></span> 
the computing
+you do in this way isn't <span class="removed"><del><strong>yours 
personally.</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>your 
own.</em></ins></span>  For instance, if you edit pages on

class="removed"><del><strong>computing.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Wikipedia</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>computing.  Wikipedia</em></ins></span> controls its

face</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>organizations as

class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> if they do their <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>group activities on someone else's server.
+Fortunately, development hosting sites such as Savannah and
+SourceForge don't pose the SaaS problem, because what groups do there
+is mainly publication and public communication, rather than their own
+private computing.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Multiplayer games are a group activity carried out 
on</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>computing 
in</em></ins></span> someone else's <span class="removed"><del><strong>server, 
which makes them SaaS.  But where the data involved is
+just the state of play and the score, the worst wrong the operator
+might commit is favoritism.  You might well ignore that risk, since it
+seems unlikely and very little is at stake.  On the other hand, when
+the game becomes more than just a game, the issue changes.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Backend as a Service&rdquo;, or BaaS, is a kind of SaaS, 
because it
+involves running your own web service on top of software that you
+can't control.  If you set up a service using BaaS, the BaaS platform
+may well collect information about your users as well as you.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Which online services are SaaS?  Google Docs is a clear example.
+Its basic activity is editing, and Google encourages people to use it
+for their own editing; this is SaaS.  It offers the added feature of
+collaborative editing, but adding participants doesn't alter the fact
+that editing on the server is SaaS.  (In addition, Google Docs is
+unacceptable because it installs a
+large &lt;a href="/philosophy/javascript-trap.html"&gt; nonfree JavaScript 
program&lt;/a&gt;
+into the user's browser.)  If using a service for communication or
+collaboration requires doing substantial parts of your own computing
+with it too, that computing is SaaS even if the communication is
+not.&lt;/p&gt;</strong></del></span>
+<span class="inserted"><ins><em>server.&lt;/p&gt;</em></ins></span>
+
+&lt;p&gt;Some sites offer multiple services, and if one is not <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS,</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS,</em></ins></span>
+another may be <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.</strong></del></span> 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.</em></ins></span>  For instance, the 
main service of Facebook is
+social networking, and that is not <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS;</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS;</em></ins></span> however, it supports
+third-party applications, some of which <span class="removed"><del><strong>may 
be SaaS.</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>are 
SaaSS.</em></ins></span>  Flickr's main
+service is distributing photos, which is not <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS,</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS,</em></ins></span> but it also has
+features for editing photos, which is <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Some sites whose main service</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.  Likewise, using

class="removed"><del><strong>publication and communication
+extend</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>not SaaSS, but 
using</em></ins></span> it <span class="removed"><del><strong>with 
&ldquo;contact management&rdquo;: keeping track</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>to transform the
+photo is SaaSS.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Google Docs shows how complex the evaluation</em></ins></span> of 
<span class="inserted"><ins><em>a single service
+can become.  It invites</em></ins></span> people <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>you have relationships with.  Sending

+
+&lt;p&gt;If</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>bad, but 
that is a matter of privacy, not SaaSS; depending

SaaS,</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>bad,

it</strong></del></span> is <span class="removed"><del><strong>OK.  There are

class="removed"><del><strong>can do.  For instance, Facebook distributes

+&lt;p&gt;The IT industry discourages users from <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>considering</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>making</em></ins></span> these distinctions.
+That's what the buzzword &ldquo;cloud computing&rdquo; is for.  This

+Internet.  It includes <span class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS and it includes 
nearly
+everything else.</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS 
as well as many other network usage
+practices.  In any given context, an author who writes

class="inserted"><ins><em>has a meaning, it</em></ins></span> is <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>to suggest</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>not a way of

+
+&lt;h3&gt;Dealing with the <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS</em></ins></span> Problem&lt;/h3&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Only a small fraction of all web sites do <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS;</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS;</em></ins></span> most don't raise
+the issue.  But what should we do about the ones that raise it?&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For the simple case, where you are doing your own computing on data
+in your own hands, the solution is simple: use your own copy of a free
+software application.  Do your text editing with your copy of a free
+text editor such as GNU Emacs or a free word processor.  Do your photo
+editing with your copy of free software such as <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>GIMP.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;But what</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>GIMP.  
What if there
+is no free program available?  A proprietary program or SaaSS would
+take away your freedom, so you shouldn't use those.  You can contribute
+your time or your money to development of a free replacement.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;What</em></ins></span> about collaborating with other <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>individuals?</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>individuals as a group?</em></ins></span>  It may
+be hard to do this at present without using a <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>server, and your group
+may not know how to run its own</em></ins></span> server.  If you use <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>one,</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>someone else's
+server, at least</em></ins></span> don't trust a server run by a company.  A 
mere
+contract as a customer is no protection unless you could detect a
+breach and could really sue, and the company probably writes its
+contracts to permit a broad range of abuses.  <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>Police</strong></del></span>  <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>The state</em></ins></span> can subpoena
+your data from the company <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>along</em></ins></span> with
+<span class="removed"><del><strong>less basis than 
required</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>everyone else's, 
as Obama has
+done</em></ins></span> to <span class="removed"><del><strong>subpoena them 
from you,</strong></del></span> <span class="inserted"><ins><em>phone 
companies,</em></ins></span> supposing the company doesn't volunteer them
+like the US phone companies that illegally wiretapped their customers
+for Bush.  If you must use a server, use a server whose operators give
+you a basis for trust beyond a mere commercial relationship.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;However, on a longer time scale, we can create alternatives to
+using servers.  For instance, we can create a peer-to-peer program
+through which collaborators can share data encrypted.  The free
+software community should develop distributed peer-to-peer
+replacements for important &ldquo;web applications&rdquo;.  It may be
+wise to release them under
+the &lt;a href="/licenses/why-affero-gpl.html"&gt; GNU Affero GPL&lt;/a&gt;, 
since
+they are likely candidates for being converted into server-based
+programs by someone else.  The &lt;a href="/"&gt;GNU project&lt;/a&gt; is 
looking
+for volunteers to work on such replacements.  We also invite other
+free software projects to consider this issue in their design.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In the meantime, if a company invites you to use its server to do
+your own computing tasks, don't yield; don't use <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>SaaS.</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>SaaSS.</em></ins></span>  Don't buy or
+install &ldquo;thin clients&rdquo;, which are simply computers so weak
+they make you do the real work on a server, unless you're going to use
+them with &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; server.  Use a real computer and keep your
+data there.  Do your <span 
class="removed"><del><strong>work</strong></del></span> <span 
class="inserted"><ins><em>own computing</em></ins></span> with your own copy of 
a free
+program, for your freedom's sake.&lt;/p&gt;
