Good day.

I'm interested in the Linux license. Or you can download from neta and put it anywhere, whether it is an individual or an organization.

    Nobody breaks through even with what kind of education, if four conditions are met:

    1. You are using a Linux distribution that does not contain any proprietary software (codecs, editors, etc.). All this is always openly indicated when installing Linux. You just need to carefully read.
    2. You are not behind the Windows machine behind the Linux “screen”. Believe me, if you wish, it is easy to detect the presence of such, even without entering your office (if, of course, the appropriate measures to conceal are not taken)
    3. there are no documents prohibiting the use of LINUX in your office (for example, I met an organization that — as a result of an agreement with Microsoft, possibly for certain discounts on software — was forbidden to use operating systems other than Windows (at least that's what the IT people of this organization told me)
    4. you have a head with brains and it normally thinks, because certain comrades can come and declare that you have unlicensed furniture or some other nonsense.

    Remember, Linux is free for everyone and everyone, and who doubts can re-read the license agreement several times (for example, here http://freeproger.ru/index.php/documents/80-litsenzii)

      Yes. Linux license implies

      • The right to launch and use the program for any purpose;
      • The right to study and adapt the program;
      • The right to copy and distribute the program for free or for a fee;
      • The right to develop and improve the program.

      • But in this regard, the question. Many times in HabrĂ© I was surprised to learn that our Russian legislation is so imperfect that the use of linux in an organization cannot be legal. Could anyone dispel this myth? - Tim Rudnevsky February
      • Depends on inspectors. And so you can buy a piece of paper from altos. - Mefistofile

      Read about the GNU license.

        GNU General Public License

          Depending on the distribution, the type of license for use may change, the changes are not very significant, BUT (!!!) this is the place where the "inspection body" may have a good law. by education

          • Can you give an example? - Qwertiy ♦
