Helping Made Easier

Microsoft is a monopoly and only they have the codes and ability to help people with problems on their computers, and that reminds me of Charter cable in athens. It really gets annoying when my cable has a problem, and I have to call Charter and they take their sweet time to come fix it. unlike linux that is a free software thats anyone that is familiar with its system is capable of fixing problems. Linux made a copyleft in their software so that people could change or add to their software, but when they passed it on to someone they had to give it for free. In the film they mentioned that 10 million people use GNU/Linux and don't even know it.
