In the conclusion, Stallman was asked whether it would be unethical to
"liberate" code that was proprietary. His response:
To liberate the code, if it is possible, would not be theft, any
more than freeing a slave is theft (which is what the slave owner would
surely call it).
For those corporate staffers who have hitched their star to someone who
does not see a distinction between human slavery and proprietary
software -- I seriously suggest you begin thinking about a Plan B.
