I am looking for works about free software or based on this philosophy, there are books like “Free software for a free society” and documentaries like “Linux code”, but I would like to know what other works there are related to free software and this philosophy, there are things like snow crash, which talks about the decentralization of the internet from a fictional and futuristic story, these types of works are also valid.

At first, I wasn’t going to mention snow crash, since it doesn’t have much to do with it, but I made the mention to make room for stories that don’t have much to do with free software, but have things that can be related to philosophy, an example of this could be right to read, of course, ignoring the author’s notes
PS Please do tell how to read the “:::”.
Thanks!Those are supposed to be part of the spoiler tag, but many lemmy clients don’t support those yet.
