By their philosophy, it does. If that feels hand-wavey to you I would agree; I find the whole "define 'freedom' as 'things I want'" thing more than a little sneaky--but it is consistent with the rest of their philosophy.
Would you be against defining freedom as synonym with liberty, and thus see the FSF philosophy as one that adapts the philosophy of liberty of old to the digital age?
Your post doesn't quite parse for me; while I am fairly conversant in political philosophy I'm having trouble connecting "philosophy of liberty" to anything the FSF does.
My annoyance is simpler, though: I dislike propaganda. That the FSF seeks to re-define the word to the exclusion of all else is bothersome, much as, for another example, the American Republican Party seeks to redefine "socialist" to mean "center-right". It's the poor debate tactic of the extremist who can't accept the validity of opposing positions.
