47 | <h2>Are you giving your loved ones holiday gifts they can use freely, or gifts which put someone else in control?</h2> |
| 48 | <p>Electronics are popular gifts for the holidays, but people often overlook the restrictions that manufacturers slip under the wrapping paper. From remote deletion of files to harsh rules about copying and sharing, some gifts almost take more than they give. The good news is that there are ethical companies making better devices that your loved ones can enjoy with freedom and privacy. Here's a list of these smarter gifts, compared with their more well-known, but more restrictive alternatives.</p> | |
| 49 | <p>Like this guide? Organize a <a href="https://www.fsf.org/givingguide/giving-guide-giveaway-primer">Giving Guide Giveaway</a> to share it with the masses. And remember: donating to a charity in your friend or family member's name (see our recommendations below) is at least as meaningful as buying them an electronic device.</p> | |
