Reportedly Wolfram Research has decided not to support Mathematica on
GNU/Linux systems, because users would be able to change the kernel to
work around certain deliberately inserted bugs designed to make
Mathematica crash in some circumstances.

I'm sure it is possible to implement binary emulation for some other
system which Mathematica does run on.  This would be useful for many
purposes, of course, not just for running Mathematica.

But I wouldn't recommend running Mathematica in this way.  Using
proprietary software is not good for you.  The decision not to make
Mathematica run on free operating systems, like the built-in bugs,
stem from the fact that Mathematica comes with chains for users to
wear.

There are two ways a person with special knowledge can handle it:
either teach other people, to help them, or withhold it, to gain power
over them.  One is the paradigm of good; the other, of evil.  A
person's actions are usually a mixture of the two; but events
sometimes reveal that a person has chosen one or the other as his
priority.  We see Wolfram's choice.

Hoarders can get power over you by making programs proprietary because
you feeling that you need the programs.  The more you get used to
feeling you need them, the harder it is to refuse demands.  That's why
using proprietary programs like Mathematica is not good for you: it
trains you to a habit of helplessness.

The way make yourself immune to the owners' power is to say, "I don't
need this program.  And with those conditions, I don't want it."
