Free Software Foundation Europe
Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users to
control technology.
Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our lives. Free Software
gives everybody the rights to use, understand, adapt, and share software.
These rights help support other fundamental rights like freedom of
speech, freedom of press, and privacy.

The Dutch Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has published new rules
that will move Router Freedom forward in the Netherlands. Within 6 months
ISPs have to comply and offer the option for
consumers and companies to connect a modem or router of their own choice.
The FSFE acknowledges this decision as a major win for consumer rights.

during the election campaign.

The "Public Money - Public Code" campaign, as well as the "REUSE
Initiative" made me notice that the FSFE is an organization which
supports the same ideals that I do. I want to help them do more great
things, and so now I am proud FSFE supporter.

I hope that more and more people will understand the importance of being ethical in their digital life and thus consciously use Free Software and that we will have more and more volunteers from all over Europe.
