Dear Ruben Safir,
As I write this, we have received our first snowfall in Boston, MA, the city where the Free Software Foundation (FSF) has its cozy office. The seasons are changing, for sure, but the bi-annual routine of providing the public with articles about free software via the *FSF Bulletin* has not. The printed pamphlets have been mailed out a few weeks ago to free software supporters around the globe, and issue forty-three of the *Free Software Foundation Bulletin* is now also [available online][1]!
In this issue of the *Bulletin*, you'll read and learn about:
* The reasons why we *[stand firm][2] in our resolve for freedom*. FSF executive director Zoë Kooyman reflects upon some recent advances in digital sovereignty, in particular in our right to repair, and shares why we must still insist on uncompromising freedom in our software, while steadily advancing.
* How to [properly license your program][3] under a free software license. According to copyright & licensing associate Craig Topham, it's *a piece of cake!*
* An examination of trends toward [investing in machine potential][4] in lieu of human potential. Outreach & communications coordinator Devin Ulibarri examines the fervor around artificial intelligence in this light, and makes the case that *free software has always been a sound investment in human potential.*
* What [JShelter][5] is, how it protects your online privacy, and how you can help improve it. FSF system administrator Michael McMahon shares details about the browser extension, including how users can become helpful contributors.
* The challenges to [buying a house in freedom][6]. Free software supporter Christopher Howard shares his recent experience house hunting, including tips and workarounds.
Personally, I love the printed version, because I can read it and then leave it out on a table for others to read. But, of course, I also love the online version, because I can share it with friends and family online. However, if you received the printed *Bulletin* and no longer want to receive it for any reason, you may now fill out the following form to let us know:
**By supporting us today, you help secure a free future.** If every reader of this email supports our efforts by [ensuring a contribution][8], we can increase our strength and direct our resources towards developing helpful resources like the *FSF Bulletin*, which reaches tens of thousands of people every year. Or, you can advocate for user freedom by convincing just one person to [join the FSF][10]. Plus, your contribution will count towards achieving our [fall goal][9] of $375,000 before December 31.
If you received the *Bulletin* in the mail and you want to help others learn about it, please consider sharing a picture of your copy with the hashtag [#fsfbulletin!][14] We love seeing how far these little pamphlets travel -- and free software is necessary in every nook and cranny of the globe.
