    The issue started when Mr. Root Mean Square came up with the term “Free Software”. It should have been called “freedom respecting software” and we would not have to deal with people confusing free software with Free Software.

      Yeah, but there’s also the term “freeware”, which means closed source but free to use.

      I’ll edit my comment for clarity, thanks for the heads up.
