What does it mean to make ethical choices in software development today?
This panel brings together four leading voices from the global Free and Open Source Software movement to explore the moral foundations of digital freedom — and the dilemmas that arise when ideals meet real-world complexity.

With:

  • Zoë Kooyman, Free Software Foundation
  • Simon Phipps, Open Source Initiative
  • Karen Sandler, Software Freedom Conservancy

Moderated by the journalist Luca Tremolada
