% FIXME: phrase ``unmodified Program'' appears due to User Products exception
 
However, note that (sadly to some copyleft advocates) the unlimited freedom
 
to run is confined to the \textit{unmodified} Program.  This confinement is
 
unfortunately necessary since Programs that do not qualify as a User Product
 
in GPLv3~\S6 (see \S~\ref{user-product} in this tutorial) might have certain
 
unfortunate restrictions on the freedom to run\footnote{See
 
  \S~ref{freedom-to-run} of this tutorial for the details on ``the freedom to
 
  run''.}
