  13. <h1>Dear Archive.org</h1>
  14. <pre>
  15. Your page, &lt;<a href="https://web.archive.org/details/libreboot.org/github.php">https://web.archive.org/details/libreboot.org/github.php</a>&gt;,
  16. says: "The Wayback Machine requires your browser to support
  17. JavaScript, please email info@archive.org if you have any questions
  18. about this."
  19. I love the Wayback Machine. So many people do. But, when you
  20. proprietary software, it makes many users lose trust in the Internet
  21. Archive.
  22. Could you make this site gracefully degrade, so it does not need
  23. JavaScript?
  24. If you cannot design the site to gracefully degrade, could you make
  25. sure that the JavaScript you send to me and other users is licensed
  26. under a free software license approved by both the Free Software
  27. Foundation and the Open Source Initiative?
  28. Please stop sending proprietary JavaScript code to my laptop as a
  29. precondition for your site to work. Just as you have control over
  30. your actions while interacting with me, so too should I have control
  31. over my actions while interacting with you.
  32. Either the programs control your actions, or your actions control the
  33. programs. With proprietary programs, the program has the last say:
  34. The program controls the user.
  35. Please make your JavaScript free/libre software.
