- Join the international Hacker Movement!
Hackers solve problems and build things, and they believe in freedom and voluntary mutual help. To be accepted as a hacker, you have to behave as though you have this kind of attitude yourself. And to behave as though you have the attitude, you have to really believe the attitude.
To behave like a hacker, you have to believe that the thinking time of other hackers is precious — so much so that it's almost a moral duty for you to share information, solve problems and then give the solutions away just so other hackers can solve new problems instead of having to perpetually re-address old ones.

Join us now and share the software; You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free. x2
Hoarders may get piles of money, That is true, hackers, that is true. But they cannot help their neighbors; That's not good, hackers, that's not good.
When we have enough free software At our call, hackers, at our call, We'll throw out those dirty licenses Ever more, hackers, ever more.
Join us now and share the software; You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free. x2
