That’s why Free-Software-Activists often tend to call it “Software Libre” as it indicates more clearly, what it’s meant to be.
In german the word “frei” has more than one meaning: “kostenlos” (“at no cost”) and “Frei” (“free as in freedom”).
The same is with the english term, standing for no cost and free(dom).
Therefor the try of claryfying this by comparing “freedom” with a beer at no cost in your pub…
