Text on the meme

What's all this racket going on up here, son? It's called proprietary software, dad. You using your non-free software again? And it's an operating system I got it for free from Pirate Bay. It's one of the best operating systems there are, which Free Hacker like you wouldn't understand! Watch for a second.

A four-panel black-and-white comic shows a father and son arguing about proprietary and non-free software. The son proudly claims he got an operating system for free from Pirate Bay, while the father reacts with confused disbelief; the joke mocks piracy, software ideology, and technical arguments between computer users.
