"Restoring democracy, in the US and many other countries, is the overarching political struggle of our time, and it extends into many areas of life. Campaigning to eliminate unjust digital systems is one aspect of that struggle."

From chapter 5, page 60, in the new book "System Override". It has chapters independently written by Nadine Strossen, Pia Mancini, Brittany Kaiser, Richard Stallman, Hannah Wolfman-Jones, and Santiago SIri. Chapter 5 is written by Stallman.

@eliasr Is there any way to get a copy of this book without using amazon?

@dragestil

Yes, the wetheweb.info/shop/ page says the following:

"System Override is available in ebook and physical form. To pay with $USD or other fiat currency click on the green link to purchase from Amazon. If you would like to pay by check, are unable to pay but would like a copy, or need assistance contact [Hannah's email]. Richard Stallman suggests you respect your freedom and purchase with crypto or check, not on Amazon."

@dragestil

That page also says, under "Purchase with Cryptocurrency Below":

"If your browser does not support all javascript libraries, you can use an HTML only version of the checkout when prompted on the next page. You can pay with currencies other than BTC using the conversion tab at checkout."

@eliasr Thanks! I banished Amazon from my digital life and don't use bitcoin for its volatility / energy footprint. Guess I'll have to wait for the book to be available in other places 😀

@dragestil I see, but then you can email Hannah Wolfman-Jones and say so, I think she can sort it out somehow.

Or email me at mail@eliasrudberg.se with your postal address, then I can send you one. I was anyway about to order a couple of extra copies (since I'm anyway already Amazon-contaminated, so to speak) to give to people around here, I can send one to you as well. 🙂

@eliasr Thanks! Let me try Wolfman-Jones first to avoid the uncomfortable ethical qualm of "avoiding using proprietary software by proxying the usage through others" 😛
