Geoffrey Knauth, FSF President and Treasurer, Comments on the FSF Raising Over $300,000
Now almost $304,000:
"Our fundraising goal is $400,000, and we are only [not less than] 25% away from reaching it! [...] The world of free software is decentralized by design. It is not about egos, domination, market capture, or subtraction and division. It is addition and multiplication, paying it forward and doing the right thing again and again for people so that they are empowered forever to have computing freedom, to learn from the good and the best, and to share creations for the benefit of others. That is what makes free software powerful. It is you. You are powerful. You have these rights. At the Free Software Foundation (FSF), the reason we exist is to protect those rights and freedoms for you against any forces in this world that would whittle them away slowly or just take them from you outright." -Geoff Knauth on December 30th (or 31st), 2024
He's one among 10 voters at the FSF:
THE people have spoken. The FSF in its current composition has mandate. It's hard to convince people otherwise, even by lying to them.
We too have spoken. We've moreover spent over $50,000 taking action against the serial defamer [1, 2], who keeps defaming voting members at the FSF.
2025 ought to be a productive and positive year. It'll also be a year of truth and transparency. █
