Software Freedom Conservancy is a nonprofit organization centered around ethical technology. Our mission is to ensure the right to repair, improve and reinstall software. We promote and defend these rights through fostering free and open source software (FOSS) projects, driving initiatives that actively make technology more inclusive, and advancing policy strategies that defend FOSS (such as copyleft).

Today, Software Freedom Conservancy publishes Recommendations When Using LLM-backed Generative AI systems for FOSS Contributions. SFC's Copyleft and Software Right to Repair Team co-drafted these policy recommendations in collaboration with a team of volunteers from the Free Software community. These recommendations include substantial feedback that SFC received in its ongoing public sessions and meetings with SFC member projects.
