I have not looked at the accusations claims in depth but anyway RMS has factually brought more utility to mankind (through network effects) than almost anyone else I can think of. Hence attacking him and the FSF seems quite hypocrite and ungrateful compared to what he gave to us. Critizing him is fine, witch hunting is not.

More than Torvalds, yes.

This is not the point, my comment is not a contest for which human has given the biggest utilitarian impact, the point is that he is among those men.
