Libre software and liberatory software.
- Libre software is only about liberal freedom.
- Libre software is politically neutral about the use to which the software is put.
- Liberatory software contributes to social, economic and political transformation.
- Liberatory software is explicitly normative about what software should be used for.
- Libre software must be embedded in ecosocialist political practice for it to be liberatory.
