<p>Nonfree (proprietary) software is very often malware (designed to
mistreat the user). Nonfree software is controlled by its developers,
which puts them in a position of power over the users; <a

basic injustice</a>. The developers (追記) and manufacturers (追記ここまで) often exercise
that power to the detriment of the users they ought to serve.</p>
