 542             <h1>Make freedom your gift</h1>
 543             <p>As the headlines are filled with companies that abuse our digital liberties and autonomy through <a href="https://gnu.org/proprietary/">proprietary software</a>, it's now more important than ever to dodge these so-called "features" and choose freedom instead. Use our Giving Guide to make an informed decision about that piece of tech you're giving your loved ones -- or yourself!</p>
 544                         <h4>Don't throw it out</h4>
 545             <p>To minimize ecological waste and encourage free software adoption, we advise you to try running <a href="https://gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw">free software</a> on a device you already own.</p>
 546             <p>If you're unlucky enough to get a gift that doesn't respect your freedom, you can still <a href="https://h-node.org">help others avoid it</a> by documenting its ethical pitfalls. And if you're a strongly technical user, this year's Guide also lists devices that need a little help or development to cross the freedom "finish line."</p>

 629                           <p><strong>Our advice:</strong> There's currently no cell phone on the market that's fully compatible with user freedom. iOS and Android are both riddled with nonfree software. What makes matters worse is that all smartphones currently run a separate, nonfree OS commonly referred to as the "mobile baseband," which is responsible for most of the device's communications.</p>
 630                           <p>If you're at all able to, and if you find your hardware is compatible with it, we recommend pairing the <a href="https://replicant.us"><strong>Replicant</strong></a> distribution of Android with the <a href="https://f-droid.org">F-Droid</a> app repository. Replicant is the bottom line when it comes to mobile OSes that respect their user's freedom, and is a project <a href="https://www.fsf.org/working-together/fund">fiscally sponsored by the FSF.</a></p>

 959                 <p>Each and every day, free software reaches more devices and is used in more interesting contexts. While we haven't evaluated these products specifically in our <a href="https://ryf.fsf.org">RYF program</a>, we're including mentions of certain communities who are going in the right direction when it comes to freedom, but who aren't fully there yet. They're already making waves, but need the help of developers or technical users in crossing the freedom "finish line" to full acceptability.</p>
 960                 <li><a href="https://mntre.com/">MNT</a>'s Reform laptop is promising from a free software perspective. If the nonfree code used to initalize the RAM were to be replaced by the community, we have reason to believe it would be fully compatible with your freedom.</li>
 961                 <li><a href="https://store.vikings.net/en/">Vikings</a> sells a variety of devices that respect you as a user, not just the D8. Many of these devices are RYF-certified, and others, like the Talos II, are freedom-friendly. Vikings will offer perform installations of free boot firmware (BIOS) on compatible models.</li>
 962                 <li><a href="https://pine64.org">PINE64</a> is a company and user community making a variety of laptops, smartwatches, ereaders, and more. The freedom status of these devices vary, but the project has made positive progress in a short time, piquing the interest of many in the free software community.</li>
 963               </ul>
 964               <p>If you know of a project or company we've missed who are <em>earnestly</em> working to free their devices, but who need a little help in doing so, <a href="mailto:campaigns@fsf.org">please let us know!</a></p>

 968               <ul class="caveats">
 969                 <li>None of the devices in this section are fully compatible with free software, but the companies behind them are making a good faith effort. Even if you're not a developer, you can write them to let them know you support their work in moving towards freedom.</li>
 970                 <li>We cannot and do not guarantee that devices uncertified by our <a href="https://ryf.fsf.org">RYF program</a> are fully compatible with free software. For the final authority on these matters, and for maximum freedom, choose an RYF-certified device.</li>
 971                 <li>Research the device you're buying. It may be intended for free software developers or hobbyists who are more tolerant of bugs, and who want to help the project advance.</li>
 972                 <li>These devices might be easier to find than some of our recommendations for refurbished products, but shipping them to your location might still be a challenge.</li>

Check out music from great labels and artists, including:</p>
1019 <li>All of the music on <a href="https://bandcamp.com">Bandcamp</a> is DRM-free and comes in a variety of formats, including patent-free ones like FLAC and Ogg Vorbis.</li>
1020 <li><a href="https://www.dischord.com/">Dischord Records</a>, a classic punk label providing music since 1980. DRM-free, too!</li>

1030 <li>In addition to streaming music encumbered by DRM, people who want to use Spotify are required to install additional proprietary software. Even Spotify's client for GNU/Linux relies on proprietary software.</li>

1046             <p>Over the past few years, many people have unfortunately become more dependent on streaming media. But it's important to remember how streaming services can deprive you of important rights. <em>Dis-services</em> like <a href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/blog/idad_2021_counteracting_disneys_attack_culture">Disney+</a> and <a href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/blog/idad_2020_sent_netflix_and_drm_message">Netflix</a> mandate the use of a hardware-level backdoor called Widevine, giving them permanent access into deep components of your machine. Don't be swayed by them -- even if your access is gratis and "ad-supported."</p>
1047 <p>Widevine prohibits these services from running on many older devices, leaving families who can't afford a new computer or a new television out in the cold.</p>
1048   <p>Try these video services and sites instead:</p>
1049 <ul class="pros">

1052   <li>Lest we forget, your local library may have music and videos for you to rent. They need your support now more than ever.</li>
