Stallman's Free Software Foundation says we need a free phone OS

They are basically not relevant, which is sad.

The FSF has been on a downward spiral recently. This is largely because of the incompetence of their CEO and only current Sys Admin. You don't have to look very far to see how grossly incompetent John Sullivan is, just Google the FSF and you'll see his review ":Just. Got it see how it goes. Bye". When you can't even figure out how to post a review for your organization on Google reviews and you leave this as your review for over 6 months...maybe you shouldn't head a tech company? Then there is Trisquel, basically the only OS that meets their strict requirements and is maintained by their current Sys Admin. Trisquel's home page currently has their end of year 2015 statement as the most current post and it tells us that Trisquel 8 will be released in 2016...it wasn't.

Heck, on Free Software Directory Day their directory was down! Of course, all of this incompetence is growing during a time with accusations of discrimination and intolerance at the Free Software Foundation are growing. Isn't the world of tech already enough of a man's club, maybe the FSF's board should look at bringing in some truly innovative and talented people - even if they aren't people that fit into their white/male-centered office environment.
