5# What’s “free software”?
6
7The GNU Assembly produces _free software_, also referred to as “_libre_
8software”, “liberating software”, or “open source”. Software is “free”
9if it _respects its user’s freedom_, namely the following four essential
10freedoms:
11
12 1. The freedom to run the program as the user wishes, for any purpose.
13 2. The freedom to study how the program works and to change it to suit
14 their needs.
15 3. The freedom to redistribute it.
16 4. The freedom to distribute copies of modified versions.
17
18These criteria were spelled out by Richard M. Stallman in the 1980s.
19The defense of the freedom of computer users are at the core of the
20[Social Contract](/en/documents/social-contract) of the GNU Assembly.
