Dear all, (Some of you might have received this mail personally already)
People often say, Free Software is more secure than proprietary software. But what may be the reasons? And is that actually true? We try to answer these and more questions in the following weeks, and you can contribute a great part with only 10 minutes of your time today. In a survey, we would like to ask you to share your opinion on various statements on IT security-related questions, rate different argumentations and approaches the FSFE could use, and share information we might have missed. Everyone is welcome to participate, no matter which level of knowledge about Free Software, IT security or programming. The survey takes ~10 minutes on average to be completed. https://survey.fsfe.org/853518 Apart from this survey, we interview experts in different connected fields and discuss in different teams and working groups. Our goal is to have a more clear and defined position, and to help people understand the influence of Free Software on IT security. The whole activity aims to answer the following broad questions: 1. What is the state of security in Free Software? 2. How can security in Free Software and its projects be improved? 3. How can Free Software contribute to security and safety in our society? Your participation in the survey will help us understand the perception of this topic within the FSFE community, and enable us to concentrate on specific arguments and questions. Thank you for your time!
