It is if you steal the electricity from your neighbor or local coffee shop.

Well then so is a Mercedes. . . . . .

But you wouldn’t steal a car, would you?

If I could make an exact copy of a car, while leaving the original car where it was so the owner can still access it, and if you consider that stealing...

Then yes. I would steal that car.

Isn't he for selling FOSS software?

AFAIK you're right, Stallman only cares about free as in freedom, which means at a minimum the source code should come with the product so you can modify it and inspect it. If you can figure out a way to sell it like that, and not just sell tech support, I'm sure he'd be all for it.

The GPL explicitly states that you can sell the software, just not the business model to do so.

He doesn’t have a giant hamster wheel to run on for free electricity.. NGMI

[-] pizzaiolo@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 year ago

Even then you'd have to buy hamster food to fuel it

You don't feed your hamsters the corpses of your enemies?
