FSF (Free Software Foundation)

The Free Software Foundation (FSF) is a nonprofit organization that promotes the development and use of free software—software that users can run, study, modify, and share freely. The FSF advocates for software freedom as a matter of ethics and user rights, supporting licenses like the GNU General Public License (GPL) that protect these freedoms. It also works to raise awareness about the importance of free software for privacy, security, and independence from corporate control, helping create a digital environment where users have control over their technology.
