The FSF's hardware endorsement program

[Announcements] Posted Oct 14, 2010 13:38 UTC (Thu) by corbet

The Free Software Foundation has announced an initial set of criteria under which it would endorse hardware as "respecting freedom." "The FSF's criteria seek to cover all aspects of user interaction with and control of a device: they say the hardware must run free software on every layer that is user upgradeable, allow the user to modify that software, support free data formats, be fully usable with free tools, and more."
