Respects Your Freedom Certification
The "Respects Your Freedom"
certification program
encourages the creation and sale of hardware that will do as much as possible to respect your freedom and your privacy, and will ensure that you have control over your device.
The desire to own a computer or device and have full control over it, to know that you are not being spied on or tracked, to run any software you wish without asking permission, and to share with friends without worrying about
Digital Restrictions Management (DRM)
-- these are the desires of millions of people who care about the future of technology and our society.
Unfortunately, hardware manufacturers have until now relied on close cooperation with proprietary software companies that demanded control over their users. As citizens and as customers, we need to promote our desire for a new class of hardware -- hardware that anyone can support because it respects your freedom. That is why the
Free Software Foundation
launched this certification program, to find retailers committed to providing users with devices they can truly own.
