1. This post is inappropriate for LIH. Most such discussions happen on
   linux-india-general. Please refer to the archives.

2. This issue has been very divisive among Linux users - as are a lot
   of the political positions of the GNU project.

3. You should use GNU/Linux, if you agree with GNU project's statements.
   Some people do, and they use it. Some people don't (me included) and
   don't use it. Again refer to the archives for the arguments from 
   both sides.

4. Most commercial distributions don't use GNU/Linux. Debian does and
   so does VA Linux, the owner of linux.com.
