מוסד התוכנה החופשית האירופי הוא ארגון צדקה שמעודד משתמשים לשלוט בטכנולוגיה.

All spaceships need a control room and all control rooms need someone to run it. At the FSFE that is our System Hackers, a group of volunteers who are the backbone behind our IT infrastructure, the ones making sure that our blinking lights show green (and not red!). Since 2022, our colleague Tobias has been part of it. Let’s learn more about it with him!

I believe Free Software needs a voice at the national as well as the EU level in politics: Software does not exist in an isolated bubble, it's heavily dependent on the ecosystem that it lives in. In my opinion Free Software as well as open standards are key to creating a society that provides equal access.
Isabel Drost-Fromm (Software Engineer and Member of the Apache Software Foundation)
I'm a supporter of the FSFE as I want to sustain their work to promote Free Software. As a person that uses computers quite heavily every day, I'm very concerned with the current trend of locking down computing which is taking control away from the users. This is increasingly problematic since people's lives are more and more dependent on computers for personal communications, managing finances, employment, etc. Free Software is a necessary requirement for retaining control over your computing.
What is the biggest benefit of Free Software? Freedom!
