Stallman's life along with free software's history is documented by a free-licensed book named *Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software* on which he collaborated. You can get it gratis e.g. at [Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5768). You should read this!
Richard Stallman is also famous for having foreseen and foretold virtually all the atrocities that [corporations](corporation.md) were up to with computer technology, such as all the cell phone surveillance, business with personal data and abuse of secrecy and "[intellectual ownership](intellectual_property.md)" of source code for bullying others, though to be honest it doesn't take a genius to [foresee](future.md) that [corporations](corporation.md) will want to rape people as much as possible, it is frankly more surprising he was one of very few who did so. The important thing is he acted immediately he spotted this -- though corporations indeed did go on to rape people anyway, Richard Stallman made some very important steps early on to make the impact much less catastrophic nowadays, which was thankfully noticed and resulted in a consolidation of his notoriety as a techno prophet. We should be all grateful.

It seems that **Stallman had at least one girlfriend**; in the 1999 book called *Open Sources* he says that he originally wanted to name the [HURD](hurd.md) kernel Alix after a [girl](woman.md) that was at the time his "sweetheart". On his website he further wrote about a girl named Melynda he met in 1995, however noting their love was only platonic.
