Seriously, now: When you buy in a web store, do you have the four freedoms
with the software you use to buy your stuff?  If not, you shouldn't be
using them by your own standards.


However, why should Amazon let you change the code running on their
servers? The software they use could still be free software, but when
you're buying stuff from them (or from the FSF or FSFE, for that matter),
*you* do not have the four freedoms, since you're not really the user of
the software, Amazon (or the FSF or FSFE) is.
