Beginning concepts for article on JavaScript freedom

I am currently working with RMS on a release announcement that touches on this
topic, but felt that a permenant article on the actual project would serve an
even greater purpose of attrating additional free software supporters.

This is by no means meant to replace RMS' ``The JavaScript Trap'' article; it
merely expands upon it.

+  The Importance of JavaScript that Respects Your Freedoms

+  It occurred to me that when we announce ease.js it would be a good occasion to
+  post something about the importance of making JavaScript code free.
+  &mdash;Richard Stallman
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>
+  GNU ease.js is in a position to help the free software community by providing
+  features under a copyleft license that encourages developers to release their
+  own code under a compatible free software license. But not everyone may
+  understand why this decision and the urging of free (as in freedom) JavaScript
+  are so fundamentally <em>vital</em> to the future of a free and cooperative
+  Internet accessible to <em>all</em> users, including users of free software.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  <strong>We need your help to protect the fundamental freedoms of Internet
+  users.</strong> This article is both a detailed description of the problem
+  from the perspective of a user and an appeal to developers to develop free
+  software for the Web; it is heavily influenced by Richard Stallman's article
+  <a href="https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html">The JavaScript
+  Trap</a>&mdash;which you should also read&mdash;and has been written with his
+  input. If you already write free JavaScript, then thank you.
