[Flisol-br] Install Fests: What to Do about the Deal with the Devil

[Paulo Henrique de Lima Santana]

Olá,

No texto a seguir o Stallman está propondo uma abordagem para a
instalação de softwares não livres em install fests.

My new idea is that the install fest could allow the devil to hang
around, off in a corner of the hall, or the next room. (Actually, a
human being wearing sign saying “The Devil,” and maybe a toy mask or
horns.) The devil would offer to install nonfree drivers in the user's
machine to make more parts of the computer function, explaining to the
user that the cost of this is using a nonfree (unjust) program.

The install fest would tolerate the devil's presence but not officially
sponsor the devil, or publicize the devil's availability. Therefore, the
users who accept the devil's deal would clearly see that the devil
installed the nonfree drivers, not the install fest. The install fest
would not be morally compromised by the devil's actions, so it could
retain full moral authority when it talks about the imperative for freedom.
