The FSFE fsfe is at the @scambi!

Today, we gifted an 'Ada & Zangemann' book to the town public library, which was picked up by the Deputy Mayor of Culture of Sanremo.

On 20 August, @dario will hold a workshop on the basics of
#FreeSoftware and present the FSFE's involvement in @ngi.

📣 Consumers should be able to buy laptops without any specific operating system, and should not have to pay the license price if they don't want to.

Together with the @ItaLinuxSociety we launched the initiative 'Refund4Freedom' to protect consumer rights when buying a new computer.

Join our demand to end of this practice that limits user freedom
