I say no.
Free/Libre software is software that respects the user's freedom. Software that meets the "4 Freedoms" is considered free/libre. The free software movement was started by Richard Stallman to to pursue the liberation of cyberspace. To create a free digital world for computers users.
Richard Stallman started the GNU project to develop an operating system for this, and pioneered the concept of copyleft with their GNU GPL license. Copyleft is a specific kind of a free/libre license that guarantees the user's freedom is preserved when the software exchanges hands.
