Can you please help us find out what legal and ethical issues it raises? For instance, does it load plug-ins? If so, can you describe where these plug-ins come from? Would they be written specifically to function in Emacs? Or is there a large library of existing plug-ins that were not written for Emacs? Are all of the plug-ins free software? Is any of then a web-browser? -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
