Construire, des mots libres Art as a Weapon There is a particularly cynical groan that comes out of a critic’s voice when the term politics is paired with art or music, especially when the politics in question is current. When politics is buried beneath layers of conceptual academic skulduggery it is much easier to swallow. If it is historical it can also pass – otherwise terms like agit-prop, doctrinaire, and didactic are used with abandon.

But what has happened in Vermont is remarkable. And it is not just liberals who are saying that corporations are not people. “Support for the resolution cut across party lines. And they have a partner in the Senate.

[Traduit de l'anglais] Le copyleft est une méthode générale pour rendre libre un programme (ou toute autre œuvre) et obliger toutes les versions modifiées ou étendues de ce programme à être libres également. La manière la plus simple de faire d'un programme un logiciel libre est de le mettre dans le domaine public, sans copyright.1 Cela autorise les gens à le partager si le cœur leur en dit, avec leurs améliorations éventuelles. Mais cela autorise aussi des personnes indélicates à en faire un logiciel privateur.2 Elles peuvent très bien y effectuer des changements, nombreux ou non, et distribuer le résultat en tant que logiciel privateur. Ceux qui recevront le programme dans sa forme modifiée n'auront pas la liberté que l'auteur original leur avait donnée ; l'intermédiaire l'aura fait disparaître. Notre but, au projet GNU, est de donner à tous les utilisateurs la liberté de redistribuer et de modifier les logiciels GNU. Le copyleft est un moyen de se servir du copyright du programme.
