Much of the communication on the Internet happens between computers
according to standards that define common languages. If we are going to
live in a free world using free software, our software must be allowed
to speak these languages.
We must not allow any one person, small business or Corporation to own
standards of common language. Imagine if someone owned the Hyperlink
protocol? Imagine if someone owned the universal resource locator
protocol?
We must keep Internet and the world wide web open and free.
Anything less and its just digital TV.
