The goal of the libreboot project is identical to that of the <a href="https://gnu.org/">GNU project</a> and <a href="https://fsf.org/">Free Software Foundation</a>, which is to ensure that everyone
has the freedom to use, study, modify and share software; in other words, the freedom to truly own and control the technology that they use. We want everyone to be able to use free software, exclusively.

+ Libreboot is <i>free software</i>; we do not use the term <i>open source</i>, because it ignores the ethical ideals of the free software movement, focusing only on practicality and efficiency. Read <a href="https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html">this article</a> for more information.
