En PortalPrograms Every year a study is carried out on the knowledge that users have of free software, in the 2011 report for example we can highlight some of the conclusions seen: Distrust (in free software) is due to lack of information and not due to problems. Only those who do not know well what it is or have not used it see it insecure. Young people are very knowledgeable. More information is needed in Latin America. 3 out of 4 people use free software regularly.
We can also limit that the growth of piracy in the streets and on the Internet is a consequence of the lack of knowledge of the existence of free alternatives and the habit of users to use programs that are popular.
This year I cordially invite you to participate in the free software valuation survey, in total there are 9 clear, quick questions that measure the knowledge, use and confidence that home users have in free software.
Participate, collaborate and give your point of view with thousands of users from 17 Spanish-speaking countries.
