<h1 id="ourwork">Help Defend Software Freedom and Rights</h1>
 

	
 
<p>Folks often ask us how they can help us defend the software freedoms and
 
  rights that copyleft makes possible.  There are lots of ways to help and we
 
  believe that the entire public can help.</p>
 

	
 
<h2 id="request">Request Source Code</h2>
 

	
 
<p>All versions of the GPL and LGPL allow companies to make an <em>offer</em>
 
    for Complete, Corresponding Source (CCS) <em>rather than</em> giving you
 
    the CCS outright with the product.  Sadly, <strong>many</strong>
 
    companies make an offer with no intention of actually providing that CCS
 
    to you.  As consumers, you have a right to that source code.  Look in
 
    every manual and &ldquo;Legal Notices&rdquo; section of every product you
 
    buy.  If you see an offer, follow the instructions and <strong>request
 
    that CCS</strong>!  If you don't get it, or they give you the run-around,
 
    then <a href="#reporting">report the violation to us</a>!</p>
 

	
 
<h2 id="reporting">Reporting GPL Violations To Us</h2>
 

	
 
<p>If you are aware of a license violation or compliance issue regarding any
 
  copyleft license, such as the AGPL, GPL or LGPL,
 
  please <a href="mailto:compliance@sfconservancy.org">contact us by email at
 
  &lt;compliance@sfconservancy.org&gt;</a>.</p>
