Software
=======================================================================

I am very supportive of
[software freedom](http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html);
ensuring everyone has freedom and control of their own computing, by
protecting the right to freely use, study, modify and share programs.
One of the ways I support this goal is by working on free software,
some of which may be found in my
[public git repositories](http://git.njw.me.uk).

I strongly reject 'open source,' a term which was created to
undermine the importance of freedom and collective welfare, and
recast free software as nothing more than an efficient mode of
production and profit.
