[Values-ethics] The Geneva documents

[Richard Stallman]

You sent the attachment in Microsoft Word format, a secret proprietary
format.  By doing this, you put pressure on people to submit to the
domination of a powerful corporation that prohibits cooperation,
spreads inequity, cares nothing for honesty, and tempts people to
break solidarity.

Claude translated it for us, but you shouldn't make that necessary.
Actions speak louder than words, so if you want to promote values of
cooperation and solidarity, please use a medium that doesn't oppose
those values.
