I am afraid that they will censor our mailing lists by prohibiting
discussions of software which they deem "non-free".
E.g., if someone uses, say, Matlab of Netica interface to CLISP, they
might demand that each mention of Matlab is accompanied with a political
statement promoting the Octave alternative.

If you look at the emacs-devel mailing list, every mention of "linux" is
met with a diatribe that it should be called "gnu/linux" instead.

I did not toe the party line back in the USSR,
I will not do it here in the US.

Thanks.
