Synopsis

With the quality and expansion of its GNU / Linux operating system, freeware is beginning to make the software giant Microsoft shake in its boots. But who created freeware?
Who is behind the movement that is forcing Microsoft and other large firms to either close down or retrain and rethink their modus operandi?
Richard Stallman is the ideologue behind this revolution, which has been brewing since 1983.
