+Malware and nonfree software are two different issues. Malware means
+the program is designed to mistreat or harm users when it runs. The
+difference between <a href="/philosophy/free-sw.html">free
+software</a> and nonfree software is in
+<a href="/philosophy/free-software-even-more-important.html">
+whether the users have control of the program or vice versa</a>. It's
+not directly a question of what the program <em>does</em> when it
+runs. However, in practice nonfree software is often malware, because
+the developer's awareness that the users would be powerless to fix any
+malicious functionalities tempts the developer to impose some.
