Dr. Richard Stallman launched the free software movement in 1983 and
|
|
started the development of the GNU operating system
|
|
(see <a href="https://www.gnu.org">www.gnu.org</a>) in 1984.
|
|
GNU is free software: everyone has the freedom to copy it
|
|
and redistribute it, with or without changes. The GNU/Linux system,
|
|
basically the GNU operating system with <a href="https://kernel.org/">Linux</a>
|
|
as the kernel, is used on tens of millions of computers today.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Stallman has received the ACM Grace
|
|
Hopper Award and the ACM Software and Systems Award, a MacArthur
|
|
Foundation fellowship, the Electronic Frontier Foundation's Pioneer
|
|
Award, and the the Takeda Award for Social/Economic Betterment, as
|
|
well as many doctorates honoris causa, and has been inducted into the
|
|
<a href="https://www.internethalloffame.org/">Internet Hall of Fame</a>.

<h1>About the lecture</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The lecture will be held in English with automatically generated Czech subtitles.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Mr Stallman's actual lecture will be about an hour in length.
|
|
Its main focus will be ethical issues in the field of digital technology.
|
|
It will also cover free software –
|
|
a movement that Mr. Stallman himself founded.
|
|
It will focus on the dangers of the constant proliferation of non-free software in our digital society,
|
|
how such software limits us as users, and how we can fight against it with free software.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
An intractive Q&A session will follow after the lecture, also being about an hour
|
|
in length. If you have questions for Mr. Stallman related to the lecture
|
|
topics, we would recommend to prepare them in advance.
|
|
Questions can be submitted either on paper or through a dedicated website.
|
|
Following the discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to
|
|
take photographs with Mr. Stallman,
|
|
have memorabilia signed or purchase items related to the
|
|
GNU operating system or the Free Software Foundation.
