“All information should be free”

php[world] 2016 13

The Hacker Ethics• Access to computers – and anything which might teach you

something about the way the world works – should be unlimited and total. Always yield to the Hands-On Imperative!

• All information should be free• Mistrust Authority – promote decentralization• Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not criteria such as

degrees, age, race, sex, or position• You can create art and beauty on a computer• Computers can change your life for the better

“I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I must share it with other people who like it. 

Software sellers want to divide the users and conquer them, making each user agree not to share with others. I refuse to break solidarity with other users in this way.

I cannot in good conscience sign a nondisclosure agreement or a software license agreement. For years I worked within the Artificial Intelligence Lab to resist such tendencies and other inhospitalities, but eventually they had gone too far:

I could not remain in an institution where such things are done for me against my will.”
